I’m Here

It was dark when we met

Chin tipped swallowing air

My feelings for you were proof that

I still existed

Even in hell

eyes glazed over

I listened as an escape

I showed up as an escape

And then one day

you were just there

Without a flinch

And

I crawled out

Cuz

you poked and prodded

You pulled me in

And pushed me out

And that’s it

Now I’m here

Saschia Jayne Johnson is the author of Writer’s Quest: A Triptych. On her free time, she likes to be with her family outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize it was the search that held what was most important; curiosity." Saschia works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
