Writing About What Matters Most

I'm not sure where to begin. I haven't written anything new lately, but I intend to. This virus has opened up a whole new window of understanding of where our world is now headed. Good? Bad? I see that people are having opinions across the board every which way. I don't understand what happened to our first amendment right to speech. Forums should be open to civil discussions. The mainstream media is playing bias games. It's sad that we are all going through this. Lost friendships along the way, I think is the hardest in all this, but at least when you stand your ground on your principles that will happen. Not everyone sees the same things, some are blinded to only their truth. This blog will not be about political issues when it comes to writing. I have so many other stories I want to tell that have nothing to do with politics. I am, however, setting up several other blogs for political writing as I see it. Freedom of speech is still a right, the Constitution is still the law of the land as well as our Bill of Rights. Don't submit to the hate, love your neighbor as yourself, look up, and keep the faith.

An Unfortunate Soul

I closed my eyes, and opened them, but all I could see was darkness. I felt a pain beginning in my toes and spreading upward through my feet, legs, thighs and then it zoomed to the top of my torso, neck, and head. My arms felt like darts shooting flames at the very same time. I clinched my teeth in utter pain and couldn’t comprehend what exactly was happening. Where was I? What happened after I went to bed and fell asleep? Could this be a nightmarish dream, or have I died and gone to …oh no, couldn’t be. There is no Hell. I was so sure of it. I kept thinking I would wake up and it would be just a bad dream. I had heard a street preacher this past week talk about repentance and belief in Jesus, or we would suffer eternal damnation. I had yelled out to him that at least I would be in good company partying away with my friends, who also did not believe. He responded that my friends would not be with me, nor God. I would be alone. All alone. My eyes were open, but I saw no flames, only

Love is Eternal

Love at First Sight The first time I saw your face Time stood still I didn’t know why But it was so, so surreal. I couldn’t speak the words. They came out all jumbled and weird I thought you wouldn’t want to know me Because I came off so bizarrely unreal. You seemed to think it was cute I thought that was something strange You wanted to get to know me I kept thinking you must be deranged. You laughed at my words. That didn’t seem so clearly spoken. I started to sense Our feelings were mutually beholden. My eyes sparkled From your reflection I didn’t want to close my eyes And have you deflected. You grabbed my hand And I didn’t pull away You had that magic touch And I refused to stray. Yesterday seems like a distant memory You’re still here by my side I can’t believe our love has never died. I gained confidence With you by my side You lifted me up And never said goodbye. Others come and go But you remained And your love for me It has never strayed. You gave me hope To believe in tomorro
