Secrets

Our deepest feelings reveal the best stories.

Love
Both a curse
and a blessing

Feelings for you
never completely dissolve
instead they drop anchor

Every time I think
I'm finally over you
something reminds me I'm not

Wondering how you're doing
Wondering if you're over me
Wondering what's new

I don't care what
anyone else says
I just want you back

New Year and New Me

Been too long since I've written on here. :(
2013 has taught be a lot for instance to not trust everyone fully who says they want to publish something of mine especially before they even see it. So many publications just want you to buy the book that your poem or short story is in and of course the book is hard cover and cost over $50! Annoying!
I haven't given up on trying to get a short story of mine published nor my dream of becoming a NY Times Bestseller. It's slow going since when I'm home many times I don't really feel like writing, but I must press onward and upward. The hard part is figuring out which publications to send my work to. I've yet to feel good about sending my work into high esteemed publishers like Writers Digest since their reading fees are high, but I know it would be a great opportunity to get chosen never mind read. We shall see.
