We are no more a monolith than you But if I dare speak on behalf of the tired those feeling despair The few who are sick of hearing About the damn table In fact let me speak on me if im able Not to create provocation Nor controversy but Own home 17 year professional career Own car Living in peace without fear I am the damn table Heck I come with over 20 qualifications Provide and protect is my default setting I am taking my time and meticulously vetting While building my sanctuary Love became transactional The day women became property And I'm pretty sure they didn't Do it to themselves If you are angry with being on the oustide In this post-romantic state My advice to you my friend Is stop listening to Mr Tate

365 Days: New Ink, New Chapter

🌹 Another 365 days, a book yet unwritten, With hopes and dreams carefully bitten. A journey awaits, to reinvent me, A version reborn, as I long to be free. New countries to explore, my strength to test, To adapt, to grow, to give my best. In every corner, a lesson to find, Building resilience,... (edited) read more

Pain's weight crushes words, leaving me mute, Silence wraps my tongue, a heavy, hollow hush. I long to speak the anguish that I hold, But find no ears to hear, no heart to unfold.

We often draw lines, man and woman apart, But loyalty's true test lies in the heart. A battle rages, love versus lust's desire, And often, it's the flames of lust that burn like fire.

Love's razor-sharp edge cut through my heart, Unleashing a river of blood in a poet's every part. But when the blood dries, and the wound worsen with time, My words will fade away, leaving only a rhyme.

What is this feeling

I am more affected when something has happened to you, I am more guilty when I mistakenly did something wrong to you, I am more angry when I am getting little hurt by you, I am more caring, when it's about you, I am more supportive when you feel down, I am more enthusiastic when I am around...

First Post

During my divorce, I started to explore writing as an outlet for my emotions. At first, I started with a fantasy book that I'd been toying with for years and found that one of the characters should be a bit of a poet. Suffice it to say I am no poet. But it became an outlet I threw myself into.... (edited) read more

A Thought I had.

I wrote it a while back. Now that I look at it, it's a bit sad when you read it. I've always had this thought that I was never good enough, I mean romantically. But now I don't have thoughts like this one.
