If you've read my poetry, then you already know about me.
My passion is ...
My biggest passion is love. I live for showing and being shown, the sweetest affection. I'm not sure of the author's name, but this is my favorite love quote of all times; Life is short, and we never have enough time to lighten the hearts of those who travel along this dark path, beside us. Oh, be swift to love. Make haste to be kind.
I know too much about ...
I know too much about sadness and pain. Life is too short to dwell on the past, and long enough to make plans for a brighter future. In this life, there is no room for hatred. We must love and heal each other.
My parents always told me ...
My dad always told me that I was a worthless and stupid kid. I rose up from his oppression. If you are in a similar situation, please know that you can, too. I made it, I got out. For many years, I lived with painful abuse, neglect and trembling fear. You don't have to live that way. If you are in a situation where someone is oppressing you, threatening or hurting you..get out. If you need help, get it. Let someone know. Talk about it. I'll be here, if you need to talk.
My childhood ambition ...
My childhood ambition was to be a figure skater, and a dancer. I also wanted my own little rescue house, for hurt or abandoned animals. Several times, I've pretty much made that wish come true. He,he! Yes, that means I've almost had a zoo.
My favorite memory ...
My favorite memory..hm...I would have to say, my two biggest out of body experiences. It's so beautiful, to be able to drift about, in endless, peaceful bliss. I enjoyed my short time away from this physical existence..far beyond our earthy atmosphere.
Why I write ...
I write to release my feelings. I can almost see them fly away, into the night..never to return, when I write. It's a beautiful thing. I also write to be an inspiration, and to share my experience in life with others..
What I am reading/watching/listening to ...
Evanescence, Sarah McLauchlan , all kinds of trance music, a little opera by Andrea Bocceli..when I want to feel peaceful, and when I'm angry, I like listening to Nine Inch Nails, Papa Roach and Godsmack. I rarely listen to the radio.
My first job ...
My first real job was at Subway Sandwiches. I had a lot of fun working there, and I learned a lot about responsibility and customer relations. That's also where I met the love of my life, so it was an all around good experience.
My best moment ...
My best moment..hm..I have a few. The first, was the day I met the man from my dreams. The second, was when I found my twin-soul came back to work with me.
My inspiration ...
Love is my inspiration. I like to do everything through love. I find that I am ever learning through prayer, meditation and careful tabs on my intension. My boyfriend is also an inspiration to me. He always seems to do the right thing, witrhout making it obvious. I respect that.
One silent fight on New Year’s night. One heart alone and torn. For I shall not be, ever ..understood. But cast aside, and scorned. Ideals and morals, scattered round. Beliefs all silenced, ignored.. and bound. One face enveloped, tears pouring down. Look not into my reddened eyes. For I’ve had my fill of hurt, in life. Leave me alone to mourn.. to softly cry. A bottle of rum, whiskey, or wine. Sooth the pain, and steal my time. Thoughts spinning 'round my mangled head Thinking I’d be better off if I was dead. You can’t understand the place in which I am. For ...
