Original art work and poem by me.

2025/5/17 Edited to

... Read moreThe beauty of love can often be compared to the blossoming of flowers. Just as flowers go through different stages before they can be admired, so too do relationships evolve over time. In this poem, the metaphor of a garden represents the nurturing aspect of love—where one partner encourages personal growth and resilience in another. It reflects how love can be both a source of strength and a profound connection that transcends the trials and tribulations of life. When a partner supports you, like watering a plant, it allows both individuals to flourish together, promoting deep emotional bonds and personal development. The journey from a simple seed of attraction to a flourishing relationship mirrors the complexities of human emotions and life’s challenging seasons. This piece serves not only as a personal reflection but also as an invitation for readers to appreciate their own stories of love, growth, and the impact it has in nurturing one another through all of life's seasons.

Prickly Cactus Poem 🌵 🤍
I long to be a delicate flower, not a prickly cactus in a barren desert, awaiting the end of drought. Despite my efforts to bloom, saguaros arise, and so do the thorns. Keep your distance, lest you suffer the pain. #poetry #poems #originalpoem #Lemon8Diary

Original Poem - Just For The Feeling
Addiction isn’t always what we think it is. It’s more than just substances — it can be a feeling, a person, a thrill. I’ve faced my own battles and fears with addiction, and it’s taught me to be aware and cautious. But sometimes, the fear of falling deeper lingers. This poem is my reflection on tha

We are memorizing verse 1a in Psalm 1 which states, “Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,”… God often speaks to us through people. So when we are seeking counsel, it should be aligned with God’s word. If we make decisions solely based on our own thoughts and feeling

This poem is written from the point of view of one of my book characters—Wallace Zagar. Haunted by the voice of someone who broke him, Wallace speaks from beyond the grave, carrying pain that even death couldn’t silence. Sometimes the scars you can’t see are the ones that linger the longest.
