Hello everyone!
I write...well I dunno what else to say or write! lol Most of my writting is during a strong emotion...usually when I am very upset or very happy. Mostly upset latetly. Oh well it happens. I hope you all like my poetry!

A Favorite quote of mine:

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain!


I am nobody
Who are you
Are you nobody too
Then there is a pair of us
Don't tell
They'll banish us you know
How dreary to be somebody
How public like a frog
To tell your name
A livelong day
To an admiring bog
-Emily Dickinson



Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me;
The carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality.

We slowly drove, he knew no haste,
And I had put away
My labor, and my leisure too,
For his civility.

We passed the school, where children strove
At recess, in the ring;
We passed the fields of gazing grain,
We passed the setting sun.

Or rather, be passed us;
The dews grew quivering and chill,
For only gossamer my gown,
My tippet only tulle.

We paused before house that seemed
A swelling of the ground;
The roof was scarcely visible,
The cornice but a mound.

Since then 'tis centuries, and yet each
Feels shorter than the day
I first surmised the horses' heads
Were toward eternity.
-Emily Dickinson

  • They would not recognize me for I am forgotten. Softly I float through time and life. Never do they see me for I am not as they are. The stunning beauty of my race has not been passed to me. I am Inara Willow. But no tears do
