She left me, a helpless baby, to fend for myself in a world that hated me for something that I did not choose. Many who saw me screamed in horror and … Continue reading Island of Misfits

In Bondage To Numbers
I hesitate to write this post because it’s a topic that I’m very sensitive about. I don’t like talking about it, I don’t like that my friends have to deal with it and I’d completely avoid it if I could. But I can’t. Because it’s an important subject that has to be talked about. *deep … Continue reading In Bondage To Numbers
To the misfits, the outcasts, the broken and the scarred
You’re lonely in a room full of people. You watch companionship from a distance and feel empty arms embrace you. Sometimes a single tear, sometimes a torrent, rushes down your hallow cheeks and stings your bruised lips. As you walk by rows of perfect people, you hang your head but still feel their stinging eyes … Continue reading To the misfits, the outcasts, the broken and the scarred
The Pained
Once upon a time, I took a walk. I was restless and searching for something – I didn’t know what. A few minutes from my house, I passed an old man. His right hand trembled. His left never stopped stroking the simple golden ring on his finger. His grey hair hid most of his face, … Continue reading The Pained

Who I Am
I was scanning through old unpublished blog posts earlier, and I came across one that I had written sometime in the middle of 2019. In it, I had three bullet points. #1: I’m imperfect. #2: I’m ashamed. #3: Wondering where it left me. Honestly, I was out of hope, out of answers and just plain … Continue reading Who I Am
Every Life Matters
I believe full heartedly that life begins at the moment of conception. The moment a child is conceived, a human being has been added to the world. I don’t agree with people who say that it is simply a mass of cells until it reaches a certain point, and then it can be considered a … Continue reading Every Life Matters
Dear Self, Keep Writing
Photo by JESHOOTS.com on Pexels.com The teen with a mop of un-brushed hair and a chocolate smear on her cheek was lying on her bedroom floor. Her hands on the computer in front of her but her fingers were still.
