Distance

Distance

I'll wait for you my dear.
For us to finally be together.
To live together without fear.
So we can love without this tether.
To hold and to touch.
To cry and to laugh.
For us to do so much.
Without all this computer gaff.
I love you
-For Mariea Anne Mills

Pop Culture Life

Pop Culture Life

I live the life of a nerd and a geek
References I scream and shout
"I AM THE ONE WHO KNOCKS!", I say
I see everyone stare and move away
"Winter is coming", comes out when I see the snow
People don't get it, the things they don't know
I roll my eyes and move back inside
At least the internet will take them in stride

To walk again.

Austin Derek Buchanan Jan 2014

To walk again.

To walk again is the dream
To dance and run
To see a tiny gleam
of hope and fun
To have my legs work is the dream
Instead of being stuck in this bed as a prison for me
M.S. has taken me down to the seam
But one day ill walk again with glee

*Dedicated to my mother who suffers with M.S.
