“It’s loud…” “What?” “Too loud.” “What is, Vivian?” “My head. It’s too loud here.” “What makes you say so, sweetie?” “The thoughts say so. They very loud.” “Do the thoughts have any idea how to stop the loudness?” “No, they just says it is too loud. “ “They?” “Yes. They says it makes them hurtContinue reading “Shout”

Specks appear in evenings cotton candy sky: Brilliant blues like the ocean serene, But blues turn to gray and fear erupts. Deep scents of lavender and rain follow thunderous nights; Lavender soft and rain soaking your tongue. Lying in a field as night turns to day; Sadness entwines sky and soul: Almost as if aContinue reading “Dreamt”

Red becomes the brisk blush  across hidden faces. Orange finds natures true beauty. Yellow  all alone under the sun. Green and Blue forming the radiant souls reflection. Violet stands tall with pride and love. And no: white, gray, and black are not colours; they are shades.

Clear and bright on a solemn night Long overdo. Where mystery Awaits to those who ask. In silent moonlight, surrounding the Radiant faces of those hidden in love; Envelope the young and old alike in deep mist.

If I dont believe in love, what should I believe? Looking around, nothing we can’t see. You will learn to love: never fret. The trees lush hues of blue and green; The stars brighter that ever perceived. Looking around, nothing we can’t see. How beautiful it must be: to believe. The trees lush hues ofContinue reading “Beliefs”
