Tiptoeing the line between what needs said and what can be put to rest silently.  Some things demand they get off your chest so, I’ve been post dating them. A good reveal is slow, sexy. Laced with both fun and seductivity.Continue reading “Poetry Series – FOR EVERYTHING I NEVER THOUGHT I’D LIVE THROUGH”

Poetry Series – We Don’t Call It Slavery
