Peeks of reality
Shine through the dreamer in me
Like when the truth is hard to see
Oh how it blinds me!
Like a crystal and your love the window Can’t you feel the heat beating through? Colors cascade in an unforgiving radiance …through time and space Stand beside me We can paint Gods face The planks of ivory The worlds open race In my mind I am wading in the river. Feet embedded in the pebbles. It is slow and it is futile For the snap of the fingers
Brings me back to that room Where time spins a never ending tune No sooner do the ants die Then they are reborn I am running with my paintbrush …Even though my dress is torn I will find a way to get through this! Heaven waits As David sounds his horn
Splendid!

You really are a damn good writer,
“heaven waits as Davis sounds his horn” that was in my Little humble opinion a perfect ending to the whole beautiful and have to say touching poem.
Have you ever published? Don´t have to answer, just curious since I have been reading you for quite some time and the little I know about poetry well I think reading you is one of the best of reads, not to dimish the others but you are as I said before damn good.
Love ya

Wow, thank you so much. You have been so deeply kind to me and really I am in awe- was thinking of printing out the pieces you wrote from the photo just to be able to really read them and physically have them- you are an amazing writer and I really appreciate your words to me- thank you.

My stuff always looks better written on a wall in crayon but if ink and paper are more convenient, well, go on then. 😀 And also, I never give false praise; it’s unhelpful. I honestly think you should consider finding a good publisher. You’re really gifted.

Wow that means a lot to me. I am not even sure how to begin that process but I do feel like maybe it’s time- it has been a dream of mine since I started writing in the fourth grade- yeah loooong ago….in a galaxy far away ;))
I love what you said about crayon on the wall- I wrote a piece about writing with lipstick on a mirror or scribbling with sticks in the sand and so on- reminds me of that piece. Thank you for your time and encouragement. It really means so much.

Entrancing and hypnotic. The format leads me as a reader to view the text as jail-broken thoughts filtering through the main subject…if that makes any sense! Well done.
