Lying in my bed again. I’m watching the shadows dance across the ceiling, As cars drive by outside my window. I feel myself entering the valley of despair. Wondering what’s going to be on the other side for me, Wondering what I'm going to be, What I'll give up and leave behind. Wish I had... Continue Reading →
Chilly winter night. Wrapped up in a cozy blanket. Warm beverage. Warm fire. Good book. Snow falling outside. Keeping me inside. Time for hibernation. See you in the Spring. Header Photo Credit to Pexels.comhttps://www.pexels.com/photo/firewood-burning-in-fireplace-1724228/

I fall asleep and my mind goes blank. Rhythmic breaths and flickering brainwaves gives way to colors. Soon I find myself standing beside you, your hand gripping mine. It seems like my dreams always lead to you. We're in a wonderful dreamscape where we can spend time together. I take every second to make you... Continue Reading →
Laying in my bed. Feeling like quicksand. Sinking into the sheets. And the pillows follow. Dark thoughts and swirling stars. Monsters have moved from underneath the bed to the corners of my mind. Looking down I see a depression left in the bed. Just an impression of my former self. Header Photo Credit to... Continue Reading →
Minutes go by. Even the digital clock is ticking and tocking. It's telling you to go to sleep. You should have been asleep hours ago. But you lay there not moving. Forcing yourself to go to sleep. Just close your eyes. Please let me sleep you scream inside your head. The room is hot and... Continue Reading →
Heart vs. Brain Part 1 Heart: I think we're going to die alone. Brain: What? We have each other. Also I'm the one who does the thinking. Heart: No I mean him. He's going to die alone. Brain: Do we have to do this now? I was about to enjoy a dream. Heart: Yes we... Continue Reading →
