: About Me

wow. a big blank box? hmmm... i am 26, recently divorced, and still trying to find myself in this crazy world. i love animals (i have four cats and a turtle named jarlid that i've had for 14 years) but i really hate capital letters >.< and yes i just made my own version of a smiley face! in all seriousness though i love to write because it takes something out of me that otherwise might never be shared. it's not just a vice - it's a connection to me that i offer anyone who happens upon an article of mine. hopefully you'll enjoy it and if you don't i'm ok with that. there's always next time...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Love's anguish

69 of 204

the depth of your darkness surrounds me like a fog. the intensity of your betrayal cuts through me like molten rocks. breath is no longer welcome as my body rejects the pain. if this is all that love can bring then i'll gladly do without. it is a far better thing to be alone than to tremble in heart and soul.
