When faced with the impossible one cannot will it away. One can either fall where one stands or proceed through the fire. I've had my fair share of both, still am. These are some personal experience poems. If you identify, know you're not alone. And maybe see yourself through another lens.

Time Can't Heal This
I've always hated the saying "Time heals all wounds." Maybe in most cases that may be true. In my experience with life and pain however, time has only ever bled out the wound.

Sometimes letting go and moving on just doesn't feel possible; no matter how much time you let pass you by. These poems signify what time hasn't healed for me.Complete
