I spin her round Like a top No, more like a dance partner She’s mad She’s not interested in being spoken to this way What does she know?

The life you desire doesn’t exist with me It makes me sad I’m not the one for you I’ve no desire to grow into something created for you I’ve stepped away from the crowd I spend nights on the outskirts of town Contemplating the darkness within me I’ve nothing to give but words on wordsContinue reading “Dear Lover”
Martyr

“Time To Let Go”
“Time To Let Go” by Saschia J https://link.medium.com/NL15hzkX06 “As a writer, letting go is part of the process. Sometimes it’s a character, or a sentence, or our favorite word, but we will always be letting go of our stories. Every time I send one of my stories out into the world it’s…”
The Art of Patience
The world is adjusting The words are flying out The book is started And the ending Is unfolding before my eyes It’s the art of patience that’s a killer But just wait Just you wait My life is falling into place And when it happens I’ll still have nothing to prove I’m excited about thatContinue reading “The Art of Patience”
