The prompt for today was to write a nine-line poem. I choose to write on the conflicting battle to be in dreams and to face reality. —— His majesty in a slumber of dreams All he does here is swing like a child only to fall into an earthquake of defeat Reality it seems is…

[37] #NaPoWriMo (8/30) [To Be Noticed by Her]
She pinned me down like post-its on her wall A reminder of a task so important after all But to see what’s in front of you is a constant struggle So I stay invisible, almost like the nose between her eyes Her eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes They speak of a time when suns collide…

There is a guy in my classroom; tall, well built and when he speaks words flow out of him like waves hitting the rocks – rock solid. I have always envied the plethora of confidence he exudes. Never have I doubted his confidence. But then I see it shatter in front of me. The facade…
