Oasis
The flat, dusty, brown serpent stretched out in front of him. Paris raised his eyes from his boots and gazed at a point on the horizon. At this juncture, the road was swallowed by a slowly descending, molten red-orange, half-circle that bravely fought off the impending darkness. The sky was swept with vivid hues of lavender, pink […]

Not having enough time is a, well, not […]
Finding Beauty In Everything

It’s abound getting to a point that you are ok with getting dirty, and knowing the sense in being clean. It’s […]
What you truly need…..
In all the ways that you neglected me, she was there. In all the ways you abandoned me, she stood by my side. In all the ways you chose not to understand me she was considerate. In all the ways you ignored my simple needs, She satisfied. When I needed to feel the universe, She […]
