I am Me. Survivor not a victim. I have been writing poetry since my youth. I work in animal rescue. I am a mother of 4. I love that we can all express ourselves through art, whatever type it may be to let them feelings free Sunshine

No Name

For you the trumpet does not sound
Through you the lost are not found
Into you destruction consumes
Result of you the Earth transforms
No more fear of the abyss
Hell cannot be any worse then this

Sunshine

I ain't even from here
I would rather be a ghost
If you can give it
Keep it coming
Throw it at me
You feel me frowning
Now I'll explode all this tension
Baby it's your story
This is my lesson
If u truly feel me
Keep it quiet
Teach me...

Mind

My mind is often times my worst enemy
It can be so against everything my heart says
Questioning if it is a real friend to me
Dirty tricks my mind throws around
Striking my heart and trying to leave me bound
I try to say God loves me
It will...

One Day

One day I woke up different.
God slapped me in the face saying no more bullshit
My music was my power
You couldn't touch me when I played it
I had a vision I was loved
So deeply loved and admired
I had a man I could cherish
He loved God more...

When Your Heart Turns Cold

As babies we all come into this world as innocent
From before the beginning we absorb the atmosphere
It becomes our imprisonment
Hard to see the light when you were born in the dark
How can you feel with your heart when the world ripped it...
