Update on Life (Not Clickbait)

Sorry, feeling goofy with the title. Hello, and welcome back to my blog! Didn’t mean to go AWOL for so long. Or at all, to be frank. Then again, I guess no one plans to stop indulging their hobbies. I’m going to spare you of two things: the details of my personal life over the past year and a half, and a promise of a regular content schedule. I’m trying to take a different approach to my…

IMO: The Best Movies of All Time

Daily writing promptWhat are your top ten favorite movies?View all responses Growing up in the 90s, family time typically meant watching movies together.

My mother preferred to consume entertainment in the…

Gobbledy-Book, Thanks-A-Latte, Or..?

Daily writing promptIf you were going to open up a shop, what would you sell?View all responses As a Latin-American who grew up in Miami, cafés are an important part of my upbringing. Coffee, tea, pastries, and croquetas–if I didn’t eat at una cafetería for brunch over the weekend, then I was stopping by one after school for a late day snack. These fantastic eateries are seen less and less…

Forever Lost

Lyrics To My Anthem | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poem #poetry #love #teen #lyrics

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. Three stories but nothing to tell Open and empty, my personal hell No closet's big enough for all of the corpses These vaulted ceilings can't handle steel doors And if only there were a place I could be If only Let's sleep beneath a blanket of stars And dream of a life that ain't so hard Rainbows reflect in an amber gaze I want to be lost for…

Beneath the Cheshire Moon

A poem for lost souls and wandering nyctophiles. | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poem #poetry #love #hopeful

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. A sea of stars is visible in the deep ocean above Pastel clouds paint the dark expanse beautifully The dense forest dances in the breeze, reminiscent of fair revelries; They're swaying with the tune as we stand beneath the Cheshire moon. Our eyes lock, and the distance between us wanes Your void-like gaze piques my curiosity Two beating hearts that…

Shades of Blue

♡ Lucia & Leonardo ♡ | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poem #poetry #love

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. Little Lucy sits on her balcony So she can hide from her demons. Eyes like sapphires watch for falling rain In the changing of the seasons. Alone with her thoughts and without a care, She comes to realize that someone's there. Little Lucy turns her head To glare at this intruder, Only to find herself lost In eyes of deep, dark pewter. The stranger…

Twinkling Eyes

Bittersweet Love | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poetry #poem #love #sad #bittersweet

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. Twinkling stars act as my light Set the scene, it's going just right Friends here and there, and strangers too And that's how I came to meet you Moon and fire light up our faces Our dancing fills up the spaces And as I twirl around I see You sip your drink and glance at me The electricity is real That surefire spark that we both feel Our liquid courage…

Another Victim

It's either you or me. | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poetry #poem #love #sad

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. Living with a broken heart Means keeping my distance from the start, Recognizing when it's time to depart And leaving another victim in my wake. Ghosting is a form of art That I've perfected, topped the charts. Intrusive thoughts keep me apart From the rest of the world, for their sake. Emotions hidden, heart guarded; Words written with you…

Dream Things

I'll find you someday. | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poetry #poem #love

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. Concealing My feelings Was never my forte. Revealing My dream things Was never okay-- But all that ends today. The sight of you has me reeling, Kneeling, Reaching for the ceiling. Love is unappealing to those still healing... But then you glanced my way. They say patience and time Are all that one needs, But will this sorry little rhyme Help us plant…

The Evolution of Me

The colors of my life | Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. #poem #poetry #freeform #introspective

Part of the Miscellaneous Poetry project. "What's your favorite color?" A staple question from everyone's childhood; A cliché icebreaker with an open-ended answer. An insight into one's soul that none of us ever really understood. Mine was green in every shade. It was everywhere. The bold color of lush grass of an unkempt lawn, a gloomy contrast to the abandoned home it often marked,…
