Mocked for your innocence Ignored through those halls Forgotten and dismissed not a single voice called Fear filled your heart Indifference was feigned Masks were adorned yet alone you remained Home felt safe Hollow and cold A mother's smile warmed The fathers voice did scold Books and thoughts Sun and shade Joy and sadness A worthless soul » Continue Reading
It is hard to breathe It is hard to focus When Love grips me this tightly Desperate to keep me on the path It thinks it has found for me It is a hopeful path But an imaginary one Fruitless It whispers to me a dream Of a solitude disturbed In the most beautiful of ways I float upon it's waves Waiting to wash up upon that shore But I drift I drift away Far » Continue Reading

Had a conversation with a friend of my parents who happened to be an Art teacher about how I enjoyed painting but haven't really had the time to get back into it. A day or two later he had sent me a tray of acrylic paints and a few small/medium canvases to get me going. I really missed it! Thank you Bobby. I really love plan » Continue Reading
