You just never know what might pop out of my mouth at any given moment. I might be talking about my Indian Ringneck, or Full Time RVing. Maybe I'll be talking about the path to happiness or griping about the state of healthcare or maybe about chronic illness. I have lots to say and sometimes I'm just plain RANDOM.

Shadow Self


My spirit truly loves life
But mind and body disagree
Sometimes I feel so lost
There's a conflict inside me.
Nobody wants to hear it
Nobody wants to see
The twisted knots I've tied into
My dark reality.
My heart and soul are begging
To only share the light
But there's this part that nags at me
In the darkness of the night.
When everything is silent
The pain so deep inside
Bubbles up and plagues my mind
And there's nowhere to hide.
So I turn the light back on
Try to occupy myself
I know that it's still lurking
But I put it on the shelf.
It's not a part of me I like
I don't want you to see
But I know it's there and I must accept
It is a part of me.
