A heart cries silently
Inaudibly deafening
The vibration
shakes a mind
into a million splinters
of sparkling diamond dust
blown free on a sunny day.
A request once granted
still held steadfast.
If he only knew..

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.

The photo is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing such an emotive piece with us!
so relatable! True; for sure... Some words are unspoken. And some matters are unseen. Sometimes there's silence too! You just made a poem using my heart!
Wonderful poem! Great work
