I am okay. This just came to me...and so, I write.
"THE POET'S DEMISE"
The heart of the Poet is broken, Her pen lies in pieces on the ground, Her papers are scattered, ripped and torn, Her madness absorbs all other sound, * The pen of the Poet is silent, Her Muse no longer gives words to her, What is a Poet if she can't write? A Commoner, just like the Others? * The voice of the Poet has been stilled, The words and the Poet are deceased, If only someone had read her words, Maybe then she would have been at peace.

(Richard M. Feldman) Ever since I was a young boy, the only thing I wanted to be was a cowboy. I wanted to own and work on a real ranch, with cattle and horses. Especially horses.
While I never became a cowboy, considering everything I have done
She never felt safe at home as a young girl, and didn't understand why when she finally escaped she wasn't safe in the big wide world either ...effectively jumping out of the frying pan into the fire!
