FINDING SOLITUDE

Sometimes the sunshine is hard to find metaphorically.  This girl is the sun in my life and I am so glad we found each other.  I love you Miss Jen!

HIDING FROM ME

Written by Stuphblog and HastyWords   Distress strolls down my street Kicking cans to the curb Looking in all the windows Trying its best to find me I attempt to find refuge A place I’m safe from its clutches I withdraw deep into myself Despair nips at my consciousness How did I allow myself to…
