hope floats.

It was as if Life intended to take from her every single thing that defined her. It wasn't enough that she would adjust to her new shell, that she would adjust to loss,that she would overcome every challenge and even face head on the unknown being dragged out before her. Life demanded. And just as she felt she …

Paradox

Impossible to put into words both the profound sadness I feel and the realization that I am on the precipice of the greatest thing that has ever happened to me....I am a paradox, wrapped in a riddle, filled both with an emotional void and ever present sentiment....~CPage

Beacon for the broken

Do you think I am unaware of the power of my femininity? that I am unaware that strangers seek my warmth, and wish to reside within and watch me burn like a beacon for the broken...

Tethered

And she was wild in every way. It left her breathless... every sunset, every flower, every tree expanding it's branches toward the sky articulated her. She wanted to be absorbed by the earth, lay down in it's grasses and feel the soil soak her up. She listened as the wind left poetry in her hair... She poured her soul into the …

I will not deny my heart

I WILL NOT DENY MY HEART I will not deny my heart I will allow it to feel wholly and unapologetically. I will not keep it caged and useless. I will let it explore its depths and shallows. I will experience all the feels… I will allow the pain to flow as freely as the …

The beauty and tragedy of being alone.

That’s the beauty and tragedy of being alone. No one notices when everything is falling apart. I guess today is a darker day than most. I’m sure logically it is because I fear tomorrows outcome and I’m sick and I’m exhausted and I still have to face every single day with a smile on my …

You have invaded me~

I couldn’t love you more if I tried. That is my truth. Sitting across from you, studying your face, feeling your hand on my arm… I filled the space with words because I was afraid of what the silence would reveal. I know you can see through me. You looked like water in the middle …
