I made room in the closets of my heart for the pieces of you - but in my blindness I could not see that the rubble had buried me. Roman Columns and war-torn lands, fires burning along the sands, distant callings into the air seeking the truth between what is here and what is there. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #grief #trauma #courage #Rome #forgiveness #whatsyourstory #abandonment #love #stillmissingyou #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #underwoodtypewriter #typewritersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Rome, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmkYIWLOhQW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The edges were rough, worthy of dangerously sharp, unclean, cuts that could cleave tender skin like fragile pieces of golden parchment. In time they smoothed with the rolling tides, scraped along molecules of rock and salt, polished, to perfection. It was then that the confluence of the Norns alined and rather than being tossed back into the violent waters of uncertainty the polished glass found its home, in tender hands it would have once lacerated, in the warmth of a well worn pocket... in the dawning of another odyssey. © 2015 Stephany Moeller #seaglass #transformation #whatsyourstory #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #StephanyMoeller #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #strength #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjbmNM_OA3J/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Silent are the streets where ghostly memories lie. Where regret and bereavement forever roam by the haunting smiles of ocean fleets. I beseech you, please dont cry. Dreams and hopes continue to exist... left untouched and unmarred they prowl in the shadows. Bound beneath this ghost towns fist, they are sheilded from what time has scarred. Immortal is their every breath; incessant chilling whispers in your ear, of every passion and intension repressed.. leaving faint echoes of elation and fear. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #grief #trauma #ghosttown #virginiacity #Montana #silvergelatinprint #blackandwhitephotography #whatsyourstory #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing #msubozeman #writersonfacebook #abandonedplaces #smithcoronatypewriter #typewriterpoetry (at Virginia City, Montana) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClHty2TuzdZ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

-Epitaph- Where are you going? Sit with me for awhile beneath these branches of paper birch, strip away the bark of reticence. Whisper me the stories you long to utter, cry your salty tears into me and when the hurricane of passion grows calm, ingest my soul as your muse, paint the universe with your dreams. Etch the inked song of my memories beneath your flesh and bathe in the ashes of fiery rebirth… when you are sated, follow me home. © 2015 Stephany Moeller #epitaph #muse #intothedepths #afterlife #sayitnow #grief #trauma #courage #blackandwhitephotography #whatsyourstory #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing #mthopecemetery #writersonfacebook (at Mt.

Slipping down into decaying fathoms of the mind, liquid caressing clouded depths of memories, vision blind. Submersed in slips of bleeding ink, seeping betwixt iron trees, moonlight waltzing hollows of shadows in wavering siege. Transient psychosis breaks, singed twigs, under heavy weight. Reaching arms warp an iron cage of contorted universal fate. Swirling currents of fading light, catch silt-choked silent screams, mirrored in glassine ice, threading betwixt decaying seams. Feeble fingers helplessly claw through silt into the scattering of daybreak. Serpentine hair, algae eyes voided… yet lifelessly awake. Weakened branches scarcely graze, vacillating in serous wind… tap tapping, bare calcium on glass coaxing shielded crystal to abscind. Fissures grow and spread in tremors of solace, as shadows creep over alabaster skin, birthing the lucid sight of a goddess. © 2015 Stephany Moeller #grief #trauma #courage #alcatraz #thebirdmansbathtub #sanfrancisco #silvergelatinprint #blackandwhitephotography #whatsyourstory #abandonment #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing #msubozeman #writersonfacebook (at Alcatraz Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj3x93tOWIm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ruffled feathers, missing moments; days pass quickly here without you. Swirling smoke and firelight; quiet thoughts washed ashore in waves of hidden tears and premonitions. I’m still here, swirling in dripping rings of moonlight, where you can’t hear me within your jumbled thoughts and fears; my parchment fingers, reaching into smoky air, for you, my dear. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #Love #unconditionallove #moments #thefingerprintsonyoursoul #youandme #trauma #abandonment #stillmissingyou #whatsyourstory #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #griefandloss #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #life #strength #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #underwoodtypewriter #typewriters #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #ᴋᴇᴇᴘɢᴏɪɴɢ https://www.instagram.com/p/CjG5PPdO8Tf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Petals falling through the air, summer’s tears, letting go into the ether; droplets falling in the atmosphere… of who we used to be. Boats adrift, headed for separate shores. I am the petals you can’t catch, the firefly in the night, among the shadows flickering within moonlit webs and gossamery lights. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #pastandpresent #lostlove #piecesofme #whatsyourstory #hiddenlife #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #life #strength #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #smithcorona #typewriter #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci048WUOB1n/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’ll take your tears, I’ll take your sorrows and I’ll turn them into better tomorrows. Full of blooms and love; growing between stones sent from above. I’ll take your tears, I’ll take your sorrows and we’ll turn them into better tomorrows. I am the medicine that you could never find; I’ll stay right by your side in the darkness when you’re blind. I’ll take your tears, I’ll take your sorrows because without you there is dullness in all of my tomorrows. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #Love #unconditionallove #moments #thefingerprintsonyoursoul #youandme #trauma #abandonment #stillmissingyou #whatsyourstory #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #griefandloss #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #life #strength #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #underwoodtypewriter #typewriters #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CibKFUuurF5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I wait for that moment where you walk through the door, looking for me, as you did before. I wait for that moment when peace comes to you, a freedom of soul, in eyes stormy blue. I wait for that moment that I see the face of a man, secure, in this earthly place. I wait for that moment When you can “see” me again, as more than guilt and once again your friend. I wait for that moment where love will win out over the monsters inside that leave you in doubt. I wait for that moment where you return to the living; where we laugh and cry over conversations and misgivings. I wait for that moment when I can touch your face and remind you that your hands do have a place. I wait for that moment where we can just be what we’ve always been longing for… just “You” and “Me”. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #Love #unconditionallove #moments #thefingerprintsonyoursoul #youandme #trauma #abandonment #stillmissingyou #whatsyourstory #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #griefandloss #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #life #strength #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #underwoodtypewriter #typewriters #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiQ_sVquOhK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I envy the moon; how beautiful it must be to watch over you in the night, bringing you light, in the dark. I envy the shadows dancing in the forests… drawing you into their limbs, tucking you in close, like only I would, if I could. I envy the wind that brushes against your skin… how my fingers ache to brush your skin; to be the wind. I envy the sun as it rises in dappled reverence, a shimmer in your eyes, if only I could be the sun… the warmth of me setting fire to your soul. Come back to these arms waiting to embrace your scars; they’ll hold you fast in a love that lasts the test of a million lifetimes. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #Love #unconditionallove #oldsouls #thefingerprintsonyoursoul #ancientwanderings #stillmissingyou #whatsyourstory #hiddenlife #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #life #strength #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #underwoodtypewriter #typewriters #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiBlnuru8Pi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

You disappeared like smoke passing from hollow lips; running from empty arms holding ceremony in holy tongues… whispering in dark spaces tiptoeing in tired faces looking for home in the beautiful remains of me. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #youdisappeared #grief #trauma #courage #forgiveness #mentalillnessawareness #whatsyourstory #abandonment #love #stillmissingyou #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #underwoodtypewriter #typewritersofinstagram #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chvg2AUOvOb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Don’t put me on a pedestal… even princesses lose their balance, Goddesses slip in mud and Queens choose the wrong chalice. Don’t put me on a pedestal. I refuse to be responsible for unrealistic expectations and scintillating sensations. Don’t put me on a pedestal. Angels are dark and devils are full of light; beings are fallible… even those with the Sight. Don’t put me on a pedestal; search my soul instead… so we can stand on the battlefield, back to back, hand in hand. Don’t put me on a pedestal; I don’t belong there… I have blood in teeth, clenched tight, and life tangled in my hair. Don’t put me on a pedestal, you won’t know who I am. I am ancient and full of flaws that speak in tongues of other times, distant lands,seized in jagged claws. Don’t put me on a pedestal. I’m tired of falling off of preconceived notions, lacking in truth and the lightning strike of emotion. Don’t put me on a pedestal. Pedestals aren’t meant to hold warriors and otherworldly things, I will never belong there, in sight of souls content to sit and stare. Don’t put me on a pedestal. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #pedestals #unrealisticexpectations #wearefallible #abandonment #love #stillmissingyou #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #StephanyMoeller #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #strength #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #SmithCorona #typewriter #antiquetypewriter #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChDz5rwOGce/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

There was a time when cords connected you and I, tiny current filled coil stretched to its limit. Electrified. Tethered. An end with no limit, except between spoken syllables and metaphor. The telephone of life, roots deep and branches reaching high into the unknown Bell's eternity. The world tethered to sound. ©2022 Stephany Moeller #connection #voice #whenwewereyoung #vintagetelephone #whatsyourstory #abandonment #stillmissingyou #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #StephanyMoeller #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #strength #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #UnderwoodTypewriter #1940typewriter #typewriter #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgfvPQnuiNY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

You blow through me in the morning light, the sun of my mind, burning through memories spiritually divined. Sit with me here, in this breezy morning air, see what you find there. Sea glass glowing in rays of salted sun, honed to a masterpiece, intricately spun. Black silk dreams, stitched in seams of porcelain needs. Threadbare ink bleeding in a melancholy wake of electric skin with a never ending ache. Sit with me here, in this breezy morning air, see what you find there. Sea glass glowing in rays of salted sun, honed to a masterpiece, intricately spun. Hold my lyrical heart, in the palm of your hand, and watch soul-filled teardrops transmute into sand. Sit with me here, in this breezy morning air, see what you find there.

I am honeysuckle in the breeze, the ghost of what could be. A whisper in the air, that only the winds can see. Rivers of sensation, riding in the rains, dripping in souls wandering earthen plains of tongues parched with white hot coals. Dreamwalker, come to me, feel the winter in my hair and the ancient wandering of words that alight there. You say, that you can’t see me but you’ll never be rid of the fingerprints left behind. I’m the scent in the atmosphere that you’ll never be able to find… except in your mind, when it breaks, over and over again… searching for home. © 2022 Stephany Moeller #dreamwalker #dreams #honeysuckle #thefingerprintsonyoursoul #ghosts #ancientwanderings #whatsyourstory #hiddenlife #hiddenstories #midcoastmaineartist #crimsononshatteredglass #chronicillness #memories #invisibleillnesswarrior #lossandgrief #mainewriter #stephanymoeller #art #poetry #life #strength #photography #poetsofinstagram #photographersofinstagram #typewritersofinstagram #smithcorona #typewriter #writersofinstagram #artistsofinstagram #keepgoing (at Owls Head, Maine) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfXorz2uMCY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
