The sun comes up another day.Sending her rays across the open fields, casting shadows with the trees, making puppets with their branches.The moon goes down, sinking in to soft sleep once again.The stars follow him, not twinkling across the black sheet of night.Like fireworks' sparks they fizzle out.The sun is a star too though.She does … Continue reading Stars Like Fireworks

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
Angel’s Tears

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
Me vs. the World
Growing up, I've always been told to hold compassion for others, and be there for them in their time of need. But, on the other hand, I'm also consistently told to not let others walk all over me. It's a conflicting thing because in this world when you show compassion you're automatically seen as someone … Continue reading Me vs. the World
