Lagoon dreams shimmer—
moonlight drapes the still water,
soft as her whisper.
Crickets stitch the silent night,
echoes float where love once swam.

Mist curls like fingers,
tracing what the stars can’t hold,
grief in quiet swells.
I linger on the shoreline,
watching memories drift home.

I am currently raising money to pay for ongoing psychotherapy. I am a survivor of complex trauma, I have dissociative identity disorder, and complex PTSD.  Therapy can be very expensive.

If you feel like donating to my fund you can donate using pay pal. My pay pal email for donating is:

Don’t feel you have to, there is no pressure, but I’m grateful for any donations that are received.

Again thanks for visiting!
