We raced through days – no time to rest...

I pour my soul into these words, they say,
These scars, they tell stories of my past,
But they don't define me, they won't last.

Who am IWho am I,
but a woman with atlas's burdens on her shoulders.
Who am I,
but a little girl trying her best in life's arena.

down belowBuilding up terrible turbulence in my brain
Resurrecting rain in my lonely lane, driving me insane
Going down below, low, low, low
The darkest night has glow, oh, oh

hello
below are two separate entries
may this day find you well
thank you
"within imagination"
yesterday darkness dawned
winds fiercely swirled
life seemed impossible
today I view bluebirds
wondrously flying high
reaching unmeasured light
tomorrow I'll follow grace
leaving hopelessness behind
for skies over the rainbow
powers live...

Golden, gliding glances so well-known,
minute, mellow movements, subtly shown.
