Life hands you a set of cards, but which ones to pick?

I am… Read full post »

A mother-determined and strong

A daughter-determined and strong

A relationship that ebbs and flows...One that never really is a good one.

We dance around being close, we dance around our relationship but when will this dance end? 

When will we give up and relize that we simply are not clos… Read full post »

Promises made, promises broken

You said you would always make me feel safe yet I feel no such thing

Promises made yet again, yet broken again
