If only this world had shown me a little more mercy, I wouldn’t be in this dress right now. This stupid wedding dress, tight and uncomfortable. It’s exactly what he would want.

There’s a storm brewing outside, a light drifting in from the opaque window curtains, drowning the room in red. The dress took on the color as I twirled around absently in the gown.

Red, the color of love and passion. The ...

The first thing I need from the grocery store is a pack of baby carrots. I’m trying to be healthier and they work amazingly as a snack I can take to work. And then maybe some milk, I think I’m almost out. Then perhaps a handful of apples will do.

She’s walking the lanes as though she has nowhere to go and no list in her mind. I wonder if she realizes how ditzy she looks right now. Anyway, there i...

The trees seemed to gallop

Across the face of the wind

Moved mimsily with the invisible tide.

The groves with their vines

Swayed ever lightly

With the force of the cool morning.

Many a weary traveler advance

Through the misty woods

But none lay eye on the deep brooding secrets.

Many a tired troubadour proceed

And none stop to see the sinister and forbidding unknown.

Yet it is there

“This isn’t how I planned it.” Brain sighed, thinking of all the events of the last 3 days.

“Oh, cheer up! We’re happy and that’s what matters. There are bigger dangers than falling in love!” Heart had always disagreed with Brain.

Rinse your hands

In basins of steel

With waters from the mighty mountain.

Let its chill drench your skin

Feel the way it gently stings.

Atone

Amend

Fix your upside down ways.

Don’t allow yourself to be buried alongside criminals.

Feel the soil

Feel the water

Let it take you to heights

Let it flow through you

And cleanse you....

Search and find

That there is in fact a life

Where completeness is a given

And love overflows.

Maybe not here

But one day it will come

It’ll knock on your door

Amd leave you leaping with joy.

To belong for a moment, a day, a while

Is to truly live in your throng.

But where everyone is on your path

And your path leads to glory....

To begin to feel

To forget the past

To remember the dreary days before,

Don’t let it evade you

Let it take you.

Past and present

Like a river

Flow ever through you.

To forget the past

Is not to live

But to drink in the present

And drown.

Recall those days

And again you’ll find

Things can never be the same.

Because of the past

We are changed....
