The whispers from the St. Johns bridge
It was around three in the morning when i decided to go for a walk. I pulled myself up from the recliner , i put on my jeans and laced up my boots and left. I normally listen to music when i leave by myself but i didn't this time .
It was quiet i was feeling a familiar type of emptiness i thought maybe i was tired and i thought nothing of it . I was spaced out and captivated by the silence and the cold air there wasn't a car in sight and the streets were dark and empty and the air felt light and i wasn't thinking for the first time in so long , i walked down lombard and then made it...

Leo
He's a Leo and he is ruled by the sun and has hazel eyes . His qualities are fixed and he fits his zodiac characteristics perfectly he's affectionate , enthusiastic , a leader and romantic he can be temperamental and dramatic but i wouldn't want him any other way . He's warmhearted creative and loyal , what more could i want? I too am a fire sign so I'm looking forward to the fire we will make when we are together , I don't write about him much and honestly i want to . I'd tell him how i really feel but i'm stubborn and i'm afraid of my emotions but here i go being honest , I want to...

hide and seek
Lets play a game i whispered . Lets close our eyes and count to ten . Let us hide so someone can come find us. well its been years and i havn't been found and i doubt anyone's even bothered to look for me. Not like i would be able to be found , I have managed to hide in the darkest corner of my mind , I kept walking the hallway looking for a place to hide but i went deeper and deeper of this long hallway and walked through many doors , ran up and down stairs then finally i hid , I hid for what felt like hours , days and it even felt like years . I peaked out the room i was hiding in and it...

my cold hands
I woke up this morning with a heavy heart , After staying up for three days straight my emotions are taking a toll i thought i was just sick .Just a headache i said , after ugly crying for forty five minutes in the bathroom and honestly i wasn't sure why i was crying because of the headache or sadness but all i know is that my head hurt even more and i still felt sad . I take my antidepressants before bed every night but i feel like they stopped working i began to notice a couple months ago but ignored it . Now I'm crying every couple hours and everything hurts , last night it was because i...

People are afraid of what they don't understand
There has been something on my mind for the past couple of days .
The Salem witch trials , We hear about the evil that these woman and the way they used the herbs and fire to determine peoples fate and the chants they screamed into the the night and the way they danced naked in the moonlight . These woman were killed for the faith they had in the earth the moon and stars They were hung in the middle of town square for taking charge of their lives . And in the 1940's Wicca rose again and these woman were pulling cards and lighting candles to warn people of the evil in this world they...

Burning bridges
So sometimes i like to disappear . Sometimes i don't want to exist and no i don't mean dying i mean that sometimes i like to get lost and go to places where people wont know my name. There is just something about that starting over factor that gives me relief That's why i moved to Portland I needed a fresh start i needed a restart and i don't feel bad from running away from a toxic mess, Mainly cause i couldn't save everyone so i burned bridges and i burned them all and didn't leave anything standing . And if I'm being honest I have never felt so alive and to actually recognize that i have a...

I'm just scared and finally admitting it.
I tend to hide my thoughts , just cause i feel like most people are simple minded . I also tend to hide real emotion because i feel like the majority of people are to shallow and prideful to show true raw emotion . I hide myself away from many reasons one of them being fear of rejection . Most of the people i have met don't take things seriously like relationships so its hard for people like me to truly show love , which brings me to the next fear Intimacy any and all forms of it from sex to deep conversations . In my head these are things i rarely allow myself to experience because iv seen...

metaphysical hope
Tarot cards have been my only friend for the past thirteen years . I mean they gave me answers to everything and have never been wrong like for fucks sake they even told me the way my relationship would end and let me tell you it ended in flames. Then the last card was always the lovers card . I was always so confused and it didn't matter how many times i shuffled those damn cards the lovers card always popped up . I now understand because my last relationship ended in flames and i now learned that he had a child on the way and he was married which is why he left me at the alter not once but...

A silly fantasy that i would one day love to come true
I'm writing this because i will never be able to say it out loud , Because no one will ever ask me and because if i put my words out into the world then maybe it'll happen . For the longest time i have wanted to get married , since the day i went to my first wedding when i was nine i knew it was something that i would one day want and it doesn't have to be anything big , Honestly id be fine with eloping just waking up one morning and decide that i want to get married on Tuesday at three in the afternoon or even by court . Either way its just something i would want , I want to come home to...

I made it home
It was a long thirteen hour drive from the shitty city of the Antelope valley to Portland Oregon , somewhere around nine hundred miles and in those nine hundred miles I reflected and I allowed myself to feel for the first time in months . I sat in silence for the majority of it but as we got further away from the desert the weight of my shoulders began to lift with every mile and every city I began to see myself in a different light and I got a new perspective of who I was , The person that I have hidden for so long and once I was finally out of California I broke down and cried . I cried...
