Poems »

I'm not sure if girl is the right word... If only there was a word that fluidly mixed woman, lady, and girl! For, although not by any means that simple, that is what I am. Sometimes I am a frail dirge of twirling insanity, cowering before my mistakes. Sometimes I am a fearless actress of brinkmanship, laughing in the face of death. Sometimes I am even a poet. But I always and forever am and will be a lover of flowing words that shape themselves into meaning, line by line, that can transcend all language.
