Dreams?
No metaphor,
No noun
Could ever describe
How profound
***
These dreams,
These hauntings,
Akin to a smooth song;
Yet hectic in my blood;
***
Fire of passion
Tides of hope!
All too majestic
All till they’re chained
***
And held down.
Till it consumes you.
And engulfs you.
***
Yet there lies a remedy;
The remedy of time.
***
A hard one to take,
Yet still the best fate.
~ End ~
Writer's note: Take *** as spacing.

The Piggy Project
I’ve had so many names in this life I lose track of which ones were ever really mine and which ones I wore because someone needed me to. Some were handed to me before I had words to refuse them, before I knew what they meant, before I knew I could say no. Most weren’t meant to hurt. That doesn’t mean they didn’t leave marks. Marks that told me who I belong to, who I am by way of who claims me, recognizes me in the good and bad, who walks beside me.
