By Lauren Wilmshurst Her 3 am thoughts are filled with depression and desireShe twists in a downward spiral then floats on dreams of lustful adventure Once a year she tells him all about it Once a year he indulges her imagination It’s good for her not to be closed off and for him to see her potential She’llContinueContinue reading “3 am Thoughts (Her) “

Losing Faith (with audio)

I’m losing faith in humanity… A man has an affair while his wife goes through menopausefucking a woman twenty years younger thinking he’s a hero for staying married A ‘Christian’ spews hate from their mouth condemning anyone who lives differently while loudly proclaiming God is love A woman sits with her friends gossiping about another poison filling the air while sheContinueContinue reading “Losing Faith (with audio)”

Image found here on Pinterest I don’t recall where I am or what I’m doing How did I get to this place in my life? Why did I allow myself to float this far off track?

Hungover (with audio)

Image found here on Pinterest I’m hungover from thoughts of you and everything we exchanged last night My mind aches from knowing we’re tiptoeing along the line of right and wrong I’m hungover from the reality of what we’re doing The morning light always reveals what was hidden in the safety of the dark I’m hungover from you and I have twingesContinueContinue reading “Hungover (with audio)”
