- More About Me and My World
- I'm 26 years old. Some time ago I lost a part of me and with it my creativity. I have such a love of words and really want to get back into my poetry. Much of what you see here will be from the days before my creativity crept away from me. I will find it again!

- Blegh! Who needs TV!

Natural Disaster
My emotions are like a hurricane in my mind,
Slowly arising in the ocean of my thoughts.
Afraid of what lies within, of what I might find,
I watch it approach the shore of my reasoning.
A fog of destruction, of fear, of confusion appears,
The foundation begins to tremble my knowledge.
My eyes respond with a torrent of tears,
A storm of doubt in my consciousness.
My mind wishes the hurricane would subside
Realizing that it can’t survive much longer
It throws itself into a refuge if only to hide… Continue
Holding Out Hope
From the moment I heard you say my name,
I knew that nothing would ever be the same.
The way you smiled at me let me know,
That you were more than just for show.
Something in your eyes whispers to me,
Unspoken words of everything that could be.
Deep within us there's a connection we share,
The way you touch me tells me you care.
It might be eternity before I can be in your arms,
But I know someday we'll give in to lovers charms.
It might take forever but you'll always be in my heart,
Nothing and… Continue
Burden Without Words
They say I will be ok
That I will survive
But I can't hear their words
Robbed of my own identity
By a stranger, by pure evil
The betrayal still eating me
Overcome with suffering
Physically destroyed
Emotionally scarred
I draw inward
Building walls, high and thick
I won't let anyone in
I won't leave my only refuge
Wanting to deny my existance
Forget what happened
Erase my memory
Just let the experience go
But I couldn't, I can't
I carry a burden
That cannot be explained with words
No one can begi… Continue

A Passing Memory
Walking by the river I hear a whisper
“Don’t let me go” it says to me
I turn in circles looking for where it came from
But there was nothing but trees, the wind and the river
I continue walking, breathing in the nature around me
I bend near the river bed and draw in the sand at my feet
The sand against my finger tips feels so nice
I look down and see I’ve written your name
My heart catches in my throat
From where did that come from?
I merely thought I was doodling but here appears your name
I sh… Continue

2. Materials posted by Members of CTI are their sole responsibility and not that of CTI management or any other member of the CTI site.
3. While recognizing that the work of creative artists is often controversial by its very nature, CTI prohibits and discourages the posting of any overtly obscene and intentionally inflammatory material. These include overt pornography, racist diatribes, religious slander, and any postings promoting discrimination against or the oppression of other human beings.
