EMPTIED

This was written with a Twitter friend Jason.  He doesn’t have a blog but I think he should. Written by Jason and HastyWords ♥ I sit inside the attic Where the dusty dark can hide me I sit among the quiet Where my loneliness consoles me   No longer do I feel Like I can…

STALLED

Written by BusyMindThinking and HastyWords ◊ There was a clock It was crying in my dreams It was ticking but the hands They had both stopped It made me sad For its purpose Its reason, its destiny Sat motionless Stalled, upon the wall ◊ I thought that I was sleeping Yet my eyes were opened…

DEAD END

Written by Comfortably Numb and HastyWords I sat looking at my hands Wondering what I had done It was too soon to be horrified I was sitting comfortably numb So many thoughts Running round in my head Too late to take back The hasty words that were said I have said sorry to often No…

Written…

KILLING SKELETONS

A cacophony of accusations Scratching clawing behind the…

FOR THE LOVE OF DRUGS AND BLOGS

Drugs…. Don’t do ‘em…well unless you are like me and then take them….please.  I am fairly sure that is what my husband would be telling you right now.  I made a few people’s lives fairly miserable, always doubting, never trusting, not communicating, and withdrawing from life.  Now that I can see more clearly, logically, it…
