THE LIFE INSIDE ME

A new duet with a beautiful friend I met at DFWCON  Please visit her website and get to know her here! Written by Veena Kashyap and HastyWords Hold on to me as I lose control My mind has turned against me You are my only hope of sanity Hold me together as I fall apart…

MOORE SUPPORT

Written by Sean Bidd and HastyWords Written in support of the Moore community ♥ Heavy was the weight Of the building storm Roaring rain screamed Angry clouds barked The black sky fell Scouring the hard earth Land rendered muddy dust Nature at her most depraved Our freedom laid waste   Do you hear them fall?…

KILLING SHADOWS

When Shruti wants to write…we write!  🙂  Love you pretty girl! Written by A Shade of Pen and HastyWords In this maze of life, I keep seeing shadows Are people always shady or have I been cursed so? I thought you to be my soul mate and yet you crushed me deep Now, I wonder…

BECOMING CALM

Written by Deana and HastyWords   I lay in the middle Of a pile of fallen leaves Looking at a clear blue sky Dreaming of what could be   I find myself hopeful Despite what past experience Has taught me Do I dare believe it could be?   Spots of clouds float by Symbols of…

TAMING THE HEART

This is my second duet with TwinDaddy…aka Stuphblog and he has blown me away.  I have yet to find someone who hasn’t had poetry in their heart.  I love duets because poetry is like a puzzle of words just waiting to be solved.  TwinDaddy may have just found his true calling!  Check out his blog…

REASON TO SHINE

Learning to live free goes hand in hand with learning to let go. I believe life is a balance and you need to know when to stay and fight and when to let something/someone go. I sat in my car and realized I was staring at this tree, part of it was green with leaves…

INSIDE THE KALEIDOSCOPE

Written by Pharphelonus and HastyWords I tried falling asleep alone again On a bed of stinging nettles They pricked me all night again The pain causing my mind to settle   The place was dark and lonely And my body…

FRIEND

Thank you Shruti for being such a beautiful friend in my life.  Good friends are hard to come by.  Sometimes friendship takes more strength than some people can muster.  I tend to wonder what kind of friend I am when so many can just….walk away and never look back? Build solid friendships with a foundation…
