Premium Member Verbal Kisses
Verbal kisses sweethearts share; set burning passions alight. And like whispered wisps of air, they let paper dreams take flight. Redeeming vows hearts declare, hope intensifies the mood. And you tingle everywhere, feeling feelings; love imbued. Lies, pretend, promises scare, and doubts are hard to dispel. And love is so very rare; it's like a magical spell. Gossamer wings often tear; when you try to fly too high. And...

Verbal Pollution Miracle Man 9/26/2024 Words caused by dementia just seem to pollute the air. Before I do my health journal I generally just don’t care. This daily noise pollution seldom induces my cheer. Listening to verbal pollution is causing me to feel drear. Most mornings I’m greeted by this non stop chatter. It finds my bare feet wanting to go pitter patter. Most times I don’t...

Verbal Punching Bag
I am my mother’s verbal punching bag. When she has a bad day, I pay the price. I can’t stop her daily verbal attack, Because nothing I do will e’er suffice. The things she says are unforgivable; Her insults are like acid on my hands. Her kind comments have always been minimal, But what else would you expect from my mom? I pick...

VERBAL COMPASS
Sugar-coated tongue sway the sea, Like lilacs and roses allure the spree. Barbs dim one's worth, leaving scars to accrue, Stripping away dignity, leaving only rue. Choose thy verbal artillery with grace, For they hold the power to create or erase....

I’m often told I am not good enough, According to my mom, I do nothing right. She yells and insults and leaves in a huff. Her cruel remarks, they haunt me at night. I’m told to do this, I’m told to do that But i’m never asked “Val how was your day” It’s alw’ys “Val, you’re a witch” “Val...
