today will forever be etched in my memory
it was the last page of an unfinished story
the beginning chorus of a song
today gave me a taste of what life might be like
if you decided to stay with me
in our own small universe.
dreaming, throwing pennies in a bottomless well
wishing on stars
creating our own visions of what life might be like
i may never get another chance
to know exactly how it feels to be right beside you
but for today
i am able to peak inside that alternate reality
that, in the moment, appeared so real
but in an instant, disappeared
like the moon does as the sun swallows it whole
as morning approaches
today will forever be etched in my memory.

 May 2018 Heart of Silver
EMD
**
Her feet creaked across a copper earth
As she made her way to a cobalt sea
Underneath a steel sky
Filled with tin clouds
With a heart made of gold
And a soul full of silver
Right now
Somewhere in the world
Is on vacation
Is laughing
Is making memories
Is working hard
Is making money
Is relaxing
Is having ***
Is drinking
Is doing drugs
Is sick
Is sleeping
Is having a baby
Is dying
Is being *****
Is being tortured
Is getting hurt
Is being murdered
Is committing suicide
Is fighting for their life
Is burying a loved one
Is missing a loved one
Is depressed
Is scared
Is homeless
Is broke
Is upset
Is feeling worthless
Is giving up
Is alone....

Ever just stop and think of these things?
Ever just stop and think of this?
Life is like a Ferris wheel
Sometimes your up
Sometimes your down
Sometimes you want to get off
Put your feet on the ground
Other times it spins so fast
As you keep going round and round
Sometimes fun
Sometimes not
But look at it from the top
You’ll see a different perspective
Happy or not...
Swimming wild and few
Through shards of glass
Like walking through the world
Being bullied and attacked
Words hurt and cut deep down
Even with a surface scratch
You’ve attacked my body
Leaving scars left behind
But it had made me stronger
As I still continue to swim
Through those shards of glass
Bullying is real and it hurts just like swimming through glass....
One night stand
Night after marriage
First time
Wild child
Unprotected one time
Not even trying.....
Equals= pregnant

8 years
Hoping and praying
Trying to hard
Never happening
Why me?
Why us?
Will it ever?
What’s wrong with us?
Upsetting, depressed, hurt, annoyed....

Being surrounded and constantly seeing or hearing throughout the world
“We’re pregnant “
Faking a smile even though your heart hurts
I try to be happy but always come back to “why me”
“Why not us?”

Glimmer of hope I still hold on too but losing grip of the hope I have...
