I am Me. Survivor not a victim. I have been writing poetry since my youth. I work in animal rescue. I am a mother of 4. I love that we can all express ourselves through art, whatever type it may be to let them feelings free Sunshine

Today We Honor The Dead

I love him so
Together we can only grow

Forget The World

So many try and try
Others simply don't care
They still die
We the people are able to fight the evil
Instead we keep playing the game
Waiting for another sequel
People, children disappearing without a trace
Men sent to war
It's hard to...
