Little Dive Bar

Life is so funny. All my life mom has told me the story of how when she was a new grad Occupational Therapist working at the University of Kansas Hospital, her and her coworkers would always go across the street to a little dive bar to dance and have a few drinks after work. On…

Stay HIS course

God amazes me literally everyday. While helping mom untangle drains, her trach tube, reposition, and watching her nurses care for her, I had a rather comforting realization today. After seven years, I am still in my element. Today I realized that God knew what he was doing when he put me in the medical field…

“Do something you love and you’ll never work a day in your life”

My day started off hectic, I was late- as always 🤷🏼‍♀️, threw lunchables in lunch boxes and finally got the boys to their grandma’s so I could get to MSU. It was not ideal, I was frustrated and had major anxiety, but as soon as I sat down here, looking at these documents, I felt…

If I Were to Die Today

If I were to die today, would you shed your tears? Would you look back on your time spent with me and cherish all those years? Would you glance at my picture as tears streamed down your face? Or would you bring your heart to remember that I’m in a better place? If I were to fade away, become…

For Just One Second

Give me your eyes just for a second so I can make you see, All that's been done here, everything you've done to me, Look my way for just a second, so you can see just what he's done to you, So I can show you what to do, Why can't you see what he's done, why can't you…

Broken Record

Solemnly I lie here, because I know it’s all a joke, From the moment you laid eyes on me to the very words you spoke, Put me on a pedestal, too tall for me to see, Never expecting me to live up to what you wanted me to be, You put me on the player and you took me…

Here With Me

I watch the sun come up in the blue of your eyes, And I feel your heart beat as here with me, you lie, And I feel your warmth as it showers over me, Then I wonder how a blind man could have never wanted to see, I can see your smile held back on your lips, Admiring me from…

Crystal Ball

I lay here uncontious in this dream, Knowing all that is happening, yet realizing nothing is what it seems, I can feel your eyes as you stand right behind me, Ready to jump head first into a pandaemonium that we can not yet see, Somehow I fly free without a care, All the while you are still right there, I can…

You Would Have Loved Us Then

"You tell me you still love me, that you cry every night, you say you don't know what went wrong or why we used to fight. You ask me why I have left you, why I've done the things I have, put all this space between us and all I can do is laugh. You'll…

I Just Want You Gone

I hear you loud and clear, slithering through all your excuses, thinking that all these sweet words will suffice as conclusive. You say you're so sad and sick and I believe half of that is right, you say you mean no trouble, then why do you bring the fight? You are a walking lie, a…
