I wrote this poem a lifetime ago and it’s still so relevant in my current life phase. Here’s a sneak peek into the mind of young Vanessa.

When The Whispers Become One Voice
Her silence is heavy
Walking Red
I experienced my first heartbreak as a child and everywhere I went my heart bled a little. I would spot dots of blood accompanying my steps but I never gave it a thought.
Away The Eagle Went
I had one as a child
Talking To The Wall
You are looking at your friends Sharing your day You wonder how the future will be
Garden of Eden
Our moments are like wishing stars Fleeting…fiery
Slow and Easy
Slow and easy Your heart’s not racing
Vanessa on Grey Matters
In the early hours of the day, when the hesitant moon refuses to make way for the sun, we are one
62
62 is a man past his prime, riddled with arthritis and back pain
Strangers on a Sidewalk
I am nothing but a speck of dirt on the sidewalk
Brazen with Vanessa
