“Follow my lead,
I’ll tell you what to do.
You’re not a burden;
I’m the same as you.”
You make me feel heard;
Comfortable and safe.
Is this what it’s like,
To finally have faith? Continue reading The Other Shoe – AE

It forms on my tongue but it cannot be spoken.
Not from choice, but of a soul that has been broken.
Healing takes time, and it will be slow,
So I’m sorry if I never say it, but this I do know… Continue reading These Three Words
I wish, I wish, upon this star,
That time will heal this deep, ugly scar.

How do we succeed when the Earth is on its knees? War, famine, pestilence, and death. It’s all caused by greed.
Nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. Sometimes it feels like we’re just along for the ride.
When do we say enough is enough? When do we pick up our swords and start being tough?
It’s time to say, “This ends now.” Never again back out and bow.
This is our home. We deserve what’s right. If it’s the only way, we will stand up and fight.
