My thoughts,Meandering as they seem,Wander with a purpose.They flick through shadows dark,Fly through forests deep-Gentle in their motions,Settling as if they never were.They dance through day and night,Hunting for a place to rest,A spot to sink in,Wandering far from where they started.Eventually they find their place,Intrusive and novel as it may be,It feels more like … Continue reading More Home Than Reality

Collection of Short Poetry
A collection of short poems.
Butterflies & Centipedes
Falling in love is a scary thing.You never notice until it's too late.Water drips and sends ripples, some feel like storms of thunder and others like waves- lapping at your feet.Your heart begins to beat again- well it always beat, but you forgot it's rhythm.And again you listen to it's gentle tune.Around him it beats … Continue reading Butterflies & Centipedes
Time & Trees
Leaves fall off the trees, raining down like rubies and diamonds beautiful in all their color.Time passes and the trees sit bare, stripped of their splendor and dormant til spring.Time plays its roll, a harbinger of life and death, bringing with it the ceasing of winds and the gentle brush of new breath.We fear it's … Continue reading Time & Trees
I Pray the Worst for You
I pray that you will experience poverty and pain, jealousy and anger, sorrow and wrath, heartbreak and disgust. I pray you will experience all of the sorrow and pain you can because without these emotions you can never truly begin to understand their counterpart. Without rain we can never miss the sunshine, likewise without sorrow … Continue reading I Pray the Worst for You
Neverending Sea of Color
Stars twinkle like gems in a neverending sea of colors. Each star is different in shape and size, some further from this earthly plane; while others feel as if you could reach out and graze their light. But all exist in the neverending sea of color. From this earthly vantage we reach out and trace … Continue reading Neverending Sea of Color
Smiling Faces
We should be nurturers. We're supposed to be a community. We're supposed to listen, to talk with others. To ask, "How was your day?" But when they say, "I'm fine," we're supposed to keep talking.You look into their eyes when they smile or they laugh, through those little window panes. But sometimes- sometimes they're not … Continue reading Smiling Faces
A Missing Piece
Genesis 1:31 NASB "God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good." This is the start of time as we know it for life on Earth. The very beginning to all you see today. At this point in time, God had yet to make me or you. One can think we … Continue reading A Missing Piece
Balloon Fantasies
My head gets caughtin butterfly daydreams.My eyes distractedon flittering fantasies.The balloons in my handslift me higher, higher,floating on a cloud of euphoria.Then my thin strings snap, one by one,and I come crashing back to reality.Next time I'll buy an anchor. Hello, I haven't posted in a while due to college, which has been incredibly exciting … Continue reading Balloon Fantasies
A Box of Buttons
