Hi everybody. I've begun to add narratives to my gallery folder. They are my thoughts and feelings on various subjects in my life.

StillThey were a blue like I’ve never seen the like of.Still by ~SimbaCUB92
Robin’s egg
Sapphire
Tropical island water
I looked him up and down
but they weren’t your eyes.
The deep voice cleared its throat
and said excuse me.
Not ‘scuse me.
They all laughed except him
They all wondered why.
But my heart was in my throat.
I recalled my hot tear stained,
mucus dripping face
pressed to the cool grass.
My golden brown hair coiling over the clovers,
like flames being doused by the ocean.
It was embarrassing,
I became the fool.
Indeed, what is God’s answer
for the nestling?
for the open wound?
for the open womb?
The blue amethysts

KiteWhen I am called for duty, why do I always forget my musket?Kite by ~SimbaCUB92
When the sun touches the cloud’s ridges, why do I always forget to pray?
Why do I always forget to be your soldier?
To fight for our love, fight for us?

In between consciousness
I scream
I reach out for you
middle aged eyes
defy reason
and seize me
you don’t frighten me
unlike others

bring hope to my woman’s damnation.
You do not douse my fire
but gently make sure it
doesn’t go out of control.
I have so much inside me,
I can’t smother it.
I must reveal it to
you, you who understands.
