Somewhere in the midst of the tears we cry
is a river that flows, strong and sure,
transporting our joy and pain
to a place where all becomes clear;
A river no longer muddied by that

I wonder sometimes how I will be remembered when I have left this earth. Hopefully, I will be remembered in a good way...:) I have often thought about what I would like my epitaph . . .

I don't want to be a diamond...
I'm too afraid to shine.
So much brilliance blinds me,
makes me lose my head,
makes me stumble down the road
knocking on strange doors,

through the dusty windowpane.

The streets are slick.
The mattress squeaks
as she turns to face a wall so thin
she can hear . . .

She had sorted
through the trash heap
of her life...
discarded memories,
men,
broken dreams,
and stupid decisions.
She sorted,
searching for clues
to herself,
the woman she . . .
