Favorite Quote:
"Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you." - Walt Whitman


The stifling pangs of
Anxiety creep forth from
Under the carpets

The sharp talons of
Perfectionism grate at
My tender insides

The cacophony
Of the unwanted voices
Drills me down to dust

And all of these beasts
So perfectly poised to kill
Still cannot kill me.
