Beneath the surface, calm I try to feign, A steady heartbeat, but a tremor in my vein. The looming surgery, a shadow in my mind, Where hope and fear in constant battle bind. Will anesthesia hold, will I wake anew? A million questions whispered, tinged with blue. The...

Still Life
Still life, they call it, this vessel I’m in, But storms rage within, unseen from the skin. Muscles may falter, my grip may be weak, But the heart in this cage, oh, the feelings it speaks
Continue reading...This Weight
A weight unseen, a shadow cast, This feeling lingers, grips me fast. A burden carried, heavy heart, A constant thought that tears me apart. They say kind words, with gentle touch, But doubt remains, I fear too much. Am I a drag, a darkened cloud, A weight that...
Continue reading...PROVE THEM WRONG
A seed they said, in barren ground, No chance to bloom, no hope to be found. A whispered doubt, a pitying frown, But deep within, a fire burned down. The whispers grew, a chorus strong, “Give it up,” their voices throng. But roots dug deep, where shadows lie,...

A heavy weight, a heart that’s sore, Disappointment stings once more. Dreams unmet, a path unclear, But hope remains, I persevere. Tears may fall, like cleansing rain, Washing clean the hurt, the pain. Though shadows linger, skies will mend, Brighter days are just around the bend. I’ll take...
Continue reading...Under The Knife
In sterile halls, where shadows lie, A blade awaits, beneath a cold, bright eye. My heart implodes, a frantic drum, As fear itself takes hold and numbs. Will I wake up, whole once more? Or drift away, and wake no more? These are the thoughts that plague my...
Continue reading...A Burden
The weight I carry, unseen by eye, A constant pressure, a silent sigh. A fear of draining, a well run dry, Makes me question if I bring them joy. Their gentle patience, a whispered grace, But doubt lingers, etched on my face. Is my presence unwanted, a misplaced...
