I see, I’m too sad today. I will try to be brave. I see, my smile looks fake. I’m sorry I made you feel that way. I See, I am annoying you. Tell me what you want me to do. I See, You say I seem like I’m not me. Well I thought you saidContinue reading “I See”

For humanity seeks violence in it’s arm. No, peace never stays. You will always see man’s rage. The sudden switchContinue reading “Cower Child”
Hold Me
Hold my hand, don’t let me go. My stumbling feet are shaking from the fall. Hold me close, don’t let me go. My shivering body needs a warm embrace. Hold my face, don’t let it go. My weeping eyes can’t see past the waterfall. R.D. Jess
