The morning crawled into my nose
and filled my chest
then continued to my legs
til I had to throw the covers off
some people grind harder than me
some sleep through their dreams
til their last breath
I’m shamefully somewhere in the middle

Distant
the grand father clock stopped ticking
I feel so distant
and
out of touch
the music is still there though
i hear it far off
in the place I last knew myself
❤ Saschia
Cafe Stories
The cafe is slow and steady but my writing is sporadic, hiding between thoughts of four hundred word challenges and how I have to get the hair out of the bathroom sink. Images from “The Ring” whistle by and I notice a wasp kill a random bug outside the cafe window. Or maybe it was his own butt the whole time. I’ll never know. The truth is I didn’t feel like writing about the wasp or anything else happening right in front of me but I couldn’t make up anything else more interesting.
Shared Air
Step… step
I think and think of shy hearts
The ones that were left alone far too long
The ones that have hardened over time
I want so badly to love and appreciate them for who they are
Because
The daily grind in this world calls for an open heart
Not a selective one

Adventure Awaits
The bells are ringing
I don’t know what that means though
The crows are knocking
And bunnies are mumbling
So many meanings
So much reading
So much untaught history to be found
To be searched for
And 4am is the perfect time
If there really is a perfect time
♡Saschia
Purpose
There’s a purpose for you
A purpose only you can fulfill
It is yours and yours alone
Shape it
Mold it and let it fill your walls
Then make your place there
don’t sit around and wait for your place to find you
Places are stationary
But you, my love, can move
-Saschia
Full
I want this life
The one right in front of me
The family
The home
The writing
The goals
I want all of these things
I’m so grateful for them
-Saschia
Wind chimes dance before the storm
Rain drums the bins
It’s a show put on by nature
A comforting display that soothes me into lala land
Like nature
We should ignite our talents using what’s right in front of us

The Awake Version
Time passes so fast
once my eyes close
There are times
I close them to think for just a second
And when I opened them
The hours had passed me by like a shooting star
Sometimes I don’t even realize my eyes had closed
And I dream that my day goes on as usual
Then I wake up and realize nothing has been done
Oh so frustrating sometimes that life has to be the awake version of things.

Imagination
She smiles and tells her story
And I listen at how she will make flying elephants
“Big or small” I ask
“Small ones”
I love her idea
and Her mind
and the way her eyes look when she thinks of all the magical things she’ll add to her secret little world of magic.
