Tears There it is again, the unavoidable burning in my throat that signals the trapped emotions of tears wanting to escape. I feel them pushing against the flesh at my neck, striving for release. They singe the inside of my eyes as they threaten to greet you. With resolve and determination, I keep them impr... More..

Here I am. Just me. No hang ups or disguises. No past and no expectations. Just me. Here I am. Pure as new snow. Untouched, naked. Laying myself before you. Mind, body, soul. Heart. Here I am. Just me. Take me in your arms And love me. More..

The Bullets of Love She did it. I watched her In monochrome slow motion. She did it. Her lips moved like a gun cocked, Finger on the trigger. The barrel pressed in to his chest, Cold, hard. And she did it. Bam! His heart shattered, Ten thousand memories flying like glass. She put down the pistol, Tried to take ... More..
Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Betrayal: 52 of 440
Hidden I listened to your footsteps echoing down the stairs, To the front door slamming behind you, Listened as your stilettos clicked on the concrete, Fading until the car door closed and the engine revved.

When finalising destinations for our round the world trip, there was no discussion or debate necessary for Hawai'i. Both my husband and I knew we wanted to stay in this tropical and much revered paradise; we had heard only positive comments about it over the years. These rave reviews and promises of white beaches with clear s... More..

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Childhood: 16 of 113
Yesteryear Remember when life was easier, When days were filled with friendship and fun, Standing in old Mr Thomas' field, Mud on our faces, the smell of nature on our skin. The cool breeze didn't matter. As long as there was a glimpse of sunshine in the evening sky, We'd stay in that field- in that world. Summers ... More..

The Globe. I'm bundled under the blankets, Pillows cushioning my thoughts, On a cool evening in July. Summer should have adorned the Welsh coast by now, But it's late this year, Making the warm, cotton layers even more of a comfort, A cocoon from which to dream and plan, Encouraging thoughts of warmer lands.

Food & Drink > Cuisine & Food (Other) What are the top 10 foods that you like?: 11 of 58
I love food. I could never be anorexic or bulimic or even on a diet. I would miss food too much. I enjoy eating. I enjoy seeing people enjoy eating.
