My Room

Familiar four walls,A safe haven with prison bars,Let me out!I can’t leave today…Lacking the strength toCross the threshold.Leave me alone,But please don’t leave me. Familiar four walls,Purple,My favorite.Ridiculous vibrance,Stop mocking me!I love you,No, please, I didn’t mean to yell. Familiar four walls,Adorned with dreamcatchers and symbols of peace,Screaming into my pillow,With senseless, burning tears,Namaste. FamiliarContinue reading “My Room”

Dangerous Love

I feel like I’m floating,In the space between sleep and wakefulnessSlipping just below the surface,The weight of sleep rests heavyOn my face.A welcome pressure,Still, sleep alludes me,Children chasing each other in a game of tag. I wait patiently to greet my friend,Wondering aimlessly,Around this twisted forest of thought.Frustration growsLike fire in my eyes.Tranquility lost,I wantContinue reading “Wakefulness”

Do you ever feelLike you are walking aroundWith open woundsBleeding?But they are the cutsNo one can see,The blood formsAs tears in your eyes,Streaming endlessly,You want to curl up,You want to bury your headIn your hands,But you are just tired…You remain still,Paralyzed, really. You are exposed,Naked while clothed,The light is too bright.Silence, felt loudly,It’s all tooContinue reading “Raw”

Okay everyone, time to vent some of my fears to you. “But Julie, isn’t that what you always do?”, I hear you asking. Okay…maybe. Anyway, my fiancé and I are going to Orlando, FL at the end of the month and I’m very excited, but also a bit anxious. So, you know, still on brand.Continue reading “Our First Trip Together”

How Grief Kick-Started My Self Discovery

I’m trying to find out what exactly will make me proud of myself. That last part is extremely tricky. I have to figure out who I am separate from the relationships I let define me.
