A Note on Style

My writing style is a combination of nonfiction and creative elements. I often write from an outsiders voice on my own perspective. What I write is my own perspective on the events of my own life. Some of my beliefs have changed over time. Some stories are from years ago, and contain my viewpoint on … More A Note on Style

The H word

I have herpes. There, I said it. At 17 years old, I let my boyfriend at the time go down on me when he had a cold sore. He told me it wasn’t herpes. I didn’t know any better. One excruciating outbreak later, my life was changed forever. At first I was in denial. Once … More The H word

The demon frazzle

Stagnant energy filled her soul. Exhaustion permeating ever bone in her body. Day after day, all the same. She was frazzled. That’s the best word to describe it.

On Apathy

That feeling of nothing permeated her every moment. Moments of fleeting joy quickly turned sour as her brain couldn’t catch up. She was not sad, she was nothing. No joy, no tears, no anger.

Her cozy cell—self imprisonment of the heart

She’d always thought she wore her heart on her sleeve, trusting too easily, jumping into love too quickly, willing to believe the best in everyone. She was brutally honest, didn’t hide her defects, owned her mistakes. She dropped everything to be there for those she loved. She gave everything she had to her loved ones. … More Her cozy cell—self imprisonment of the heart

The voice of fear

That voice in your head telling you not to try,  you’ll only get hurt. Silence it. That voice telling you you aren’t good enough,  tell it you are. That feeling in the pit of your stomach that fears the worst case, breathe through it. She always wanted to give into the fear, to run away, … More The voice of fear

First Love— Remembering what was, not what could have been.

She had loved him the moment she met him. He would always be the one that got away. 9 years had passed since she had seen him. 9 years since he broke her heart. Yet it felt like yesterday.
