Letting it out, taking it in.
Oct 7, 2025
A journal of sorts. Combining my favorite reflections, poems, and beautiful moments of my life.

The days have been fleeting,
all of my time disappearing—
moment by moment deleting,
and then I start anew.
Days are filled to the brim;
my time is growing slim.
I start to ache in my limbs,
because that’s what aging will do.
I feel smarter every day,
and somehow dumber every way.
Thus is life, we all say—yay?
Until we all pass through.
It’s strange like that, life—
it happens quickly, causing ...
Poetry
I remember that night as if it were yesterday;
I was curled up on the floor, in complete disarray.
I had never lost before—at least, not this way,
not someone who touched my life every single day.
You were a guardian to me, a bond I’ll always treasure;
to have countless memories of you was truly a pleasure.
Bingo, Kit-Kats, Willy Wonka, and Twister—
playing Mario Kart with me and my sister.
I ...
Sweetie little treaty, you indulge me so,
with your velvety vanilla cream and drizzled chocolate combo.
Sweetie little treaty, you really are the best—
a warm fudgy brownie underneath; gosh, I’m feeling blessed.
Sweetie little treaty, you’re really getting me by.
I needed your cozy comfort, to sit out under the blue sky.
Sweetie little treaty, each bite I savor on—
spoon by spoon, needily—befor...
Chapter 1
In the morning, I walk out onto my porch—something repetitious.
Then in my nose, a sort of magic appears—fragrant and delicious.
I inhale deeply to save the sweet moment brought to me.
I wonder for a moment—what is it? A bush or a tree?
It’s a treat every morning, an awakening of my senses.
I love it so much I want it for myself—the power it possesses.
If I figure out what plant it is, where wo...
Your bloom impressive
Your spread, I see, extensive
My lawn, no meadow....
The sky, full of stars, seemed dead and cold;
a place once so magical now hurt to behold.
The vastness of space chilling to my bones
as I sit in this vessel, slowly drifting alone.
How did I get here? What void opened up?
I closed my eyes and drifted off. What bad luck—
to dream of a place so lonely, so empty.
It’s haunting to observe the lack of possibility.
Here I am, here is nothing—
infinit...
Romance
You will always have time.
When you feel like your dont.
You will always have time,
Even if you feel like you wont.
It can feel scary, the seconds ticking on.
And the days start to feel overly long.
People are waiting,
that may feel heavy.
People are talking,
Your hands might get sweaty.
Remember, this is your life!
You live for no one else.
Your on your own time,
Forget all the rest....
With these two hands, anything can emurge.
I’ll lock myself in this room, emotional purge.
Put these two fabrics together for a quilt to keep me warm.
Maybe mix these flours together, tasty bread will form.
I find the in between, a place I drift off to flow.
Passion expressing, totally zoned in, letting it all go.
And if im feeling up to it, maybe Ill tackle this room.
Because somtimes its ...
I know it is hard, this thing we call life.
It won’t always be easy, you’ll have to put up a fight.
The fight can be won, I promise it’s true.
Because what is in me, is also in you....
Beneath the willow, you will find-
All that was before and all that will be left behind.
Observe the limbs, how they are expanding and reaching out.
Mirrored below in the roots without sprout.
What is and what was continues to cycle.
Through the seasons rotation, never idle.
Let life flow, in and out.
Let life go, without doubt....
