I'll never be sexy. Wearing next to nothing gets too chilly. Pouting for the camera looks silly and God didn't bless me with boobies. Talking of boobs, I guess I'm a little skinny. Curves aren't something that suits me. No one is ever happy with their bodies, but I guess I've come to accept mine's … Continue reading I’ll Never Be Sexy.
Seen - a word now crushingly associated with an accompanied time and date. Sounds like a crime scene, doesn't it? An embedded white outline surrounding the message you've sent to someone, forever lost in a cyber world with no idea as to what killed the conversation. Rationally, you want to reach for the reason of … Continue reading If You See This, Let Me Know.
Today, I escaped reality. Feet threaded to the grass, I watched as the sky tied up the sunlight with blue and pink ribbons, carefully dotting the view above me with platinum jewels. The day had met its curtain call, and the fabric of time itself was stitched up in my watching. The breeze stroked my … Continue reading How To Be Free
"That's me! But...why?!" Well, according to a recent study, 25% of Americans will reach the age of 50 having never been married.

This had to be a dream, too good to be true, surely something this special doesn't happen to girls like me?

Hindsight … Continue reading If I Could Turn Back Time
"You're unique, just like everybody else" so the famous saying goes (although I am still unsure of its specific origin, nevertheless, it makes a good point - no two people are the same) However, what we do share is the fact that we're all completely, and utterly, mind-boggling. Throughout my life, I've heard it all. … Continue reading You Are What You Think

Looking at their fresh faces and bonny cheeks, I could tell that I was officially the oldest. And with such an age-related privilege, I decided that it was … Continue reading Now is the Time to Release Your Inner-Child
This time last year you asked a question of patience. You said that good things may come to those who wait, but in order for change you must be responsible for its beginning - How? How do you know if the decision you make will be the right one? Or in fact, if it's of any … Continue reading Dear, Little Me…(Chapter 2)
The tear emerged shyly, hesitantly cascading her lid before it soared down her soft cheek It trailed, a journey steep and perilous, before it trembled her lips to which she'd speak: "I didn't want you to see me cry." Never sure if releasing her pain would result in a sigh or something to deny. True … Continue reading A Poem for the Creative, A Message for the Hopeful and a Wish for the Future
I hid behind the sheets with one eye covered and the other glued to the TV screen. “Don’t go in there!” I yelled. But she did. The scene was unimaginable.
