Trin

She felt her lifeless body against the harsh woodgrain of a ships bulkhead.  The gown she was wearing was once a brilliant baby blue but now all of Paris was on her dress. Trinnette put her hands in her tangles as if the memories would come back but there was only bit and pieces. Her …

The General

  They have strength of trees that will bend through a storm. They have patience of a river that carves beauty in rust colored earth. They have sass because they are all that and a bag of chips on the good side of Walmart. They have wisdom beyond their years because they have seen years …

My anxiety

I have been silent because I have seasonal depression and severe anxiety. There is something in a room of people that I will know very well to choke the voice I have. I will try to sleep in my bed but something that I did when I was 20 keeps me awake. How does this …

Hello, Sorry that I have not posted anything in a while. I have been working, parenting, and trying to figure out my new life. I will post things soon.
