    Seemingly fixated on darkness and fear, the most terrifying thing, Drawing conclusions like an open-ending horror movie scene, Rejecting the fantasy of living in solitude and contentment, Disconnecting from joy, unhealthy thoughts becoming relentless, Reprogramming my mind, redirecting my purpose in this life, Breaking down the harsh, cold barriers of negativity and sadness, Surrounding myself…

    I tell myself, do not fear, Pushing myself to persevere, To be successful in this life, It takes courage and sacrifice, I will continue to follow my dreams, My contentment sets my mind free, I won’t give up until I reach my goals, Gaining knowledge to better myself as a whole, Striving for the best…

    What’s wrong? Nothing, I’m chillin’. Are you okay? I’m fine. How can I help? Thanks, I got it. Are you sure? Yep, I’m cool. Want to talk about it? Nope, I’ll figure it out. You look upset, can I help? Ignore me, I have a natural RBF. Is there anything I can do to make…

    I want to be able to write all of the time, Reality, curiosity, and anxiety rule my mind, Exploding with emotions, strength, and passion, No harm done to anyone in any shape, form, or fashion, Sharing my deepest thoughts, my deepest fears, Standing by my word to no more crying, no more tears, Pen to paper,…

  • Spiritually Unknown

    Past encounters with humanity have been unpleasant, Endurance of the fake friendliness of others. Offering acts of kindness has not been useful, Sharing laughter or smiles didn’t make a difference, Lifting morale for those in need of an ear to listen did not matter, No one sees my kindness, no one recognizes my peaceful heart,…

    I see it, do you see it? Take a closer look, Close your eyes, Open your eyes, I see the face of God who is unhappy with what the world has become. What do you see? Clouds are full of wonderment, I love to be creative when I view them in passing. Sometimes, I just…

    Rupi Kaur is an inspiration to me as her writing style creates a vivid story for readers. Her illustrations are relevant to her words. I find meaning and depth through her poetry which gives me spiritual guidance in my own life. This particular book “Healing Through Words” is about learning how to write and illustrate…

    Vent #3 AI technology is damaging the blue collar and white collar work culture. Recruiters and Human Resources are not realizing that because they are choosing to sift out candidates by picking up the phone and interviewing to find out the voice behind the resume, they will be replaced in the future. Job boards are…

  • Can You Keep a Secret?

    A secret that can never be revealed, A secret that causes severe harm, A secret that protects loved ones, A secret that can’t wait to be told, A secret that makes you nervous, A secret that keeps you awake at night, A secret that drives you insane, A secret that you take to your grave.…

    Her bags are packed, Her mind is made up, Her face is bruised, Her body is beaten, Her life is too valuable to stay. Staying in a toxic relationship is something that is unexplainable. I was in one for years, I was afraid to leave due to my life being threatened if I left. I…
