What if I can’t go back ?

I’m for now back on track

But the quarantine is stressing me out

Somebody hear me out !

There is a gloomy weather in my brain

There is a rain of negative thoughts, again

At some point it will be sunny and I’ll be happy

But I still need to be with my family

I am afraid here alone I might do something crazy

I really need someone to find a remedy

During this time of quarantine and social distancing I've been spending a lot of time going through things at home and clearing things out. During one of those cleaning out sessions I found these books some of which I knew and remembered and some of which I had totally forgotten about. When I went through these books I realized that each of them has a story, not a story about them, lol......but an actual story that I have written inside them. . . Each of them has a story or some poems that I have written some time ago. The poems were done, but none of the stories were ever completed. I was surprised because some of the stories I don't even remember writing. So since I made this amazing (and somewhat sad discovery seeing none of these stories were ever finished) I've decided to pick a book and complete a story. One by one I plan to bring to completion each of the stories started in these books. The large, but not impossible goal for me now is to have all of these stories completed by the end of the year God spares life and to have at least a couple of them going through the publishing process. I know I didn't start these stories for them to be kept in a book on my shelf, but to be shared with the world. . . . . #iamwriting #iamanauthor #authorlifestyle #tellingstories #writinggoals #writinggoals2020 #authordreams #publishingdreams #artofwriting #fellowwriters #quaratine2020 #quarantinewriting #quarantineliving #writingdreams #storyteller_tribe #storytellers #ilovestories #ilovetellingstories #ilovestorytelling #storytelling #artofstorytelling #artofstorytelling_ig #bahamianwriter #bahamianauthor (at Nassau, Bahamas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDPwqonBuOe/?igshid=1p98ta41qs8gh

Caged Lion. Without being able to go on living my life properly, being profitable and fully constructive, I feel like anything I do is meaningless and pointless. Because despite all the writing I’m getting done, there is this chronic, constant and nagging feeling like I’m not doing enough, that I’m just wasting my time and life. I’m so used to being out and about, going from one place to another and just doing and getting things checked off my list. Now that it’s not possible I feel like a caged lion, stuck between bars and slowly going stir-crazy.

If I had a Time Machine . . If I had a time machine, I would go to this moment of 2019. No I wouldn't bother me with the details of covid-19, but I might just hint her to the possibility of the then-impossibility. I would mostly try to show her the consequences that I am going through because 2019-me decided to celebrate her pity party a bit too long. I would tell her how it feels to wear procrastination for skin, to have my blood course through it and that it's the beginning of my sin. How fleeing from confrontations will become a habit, a habit I would eventually have to work my life off to curb it. The habit of my brain going periodically numb and my heart beating twice as hard like some offbeat drum I would plead to her to not make it into one, because repeated breakdowns are genuinely no fun. If I had a time machine I'd be reluctant to go to the future. Not because of the pandemic, I'd like to believe I'd get through it. It's more likely that I'd disappoint myself, like I have disappointed my past self. If the future me was staring back at me giving me all these advices so I don't turn my life into a tragedy, I'd think I'm tripping. It's even likely that I wouldn't take myself seriously and think she is just someone who eerily looks like me. Or maybe I don't make it, which is fine, but do I really need to know now? If I had a time machine, I would come to this present. I'd slap the living hell out if myself and tell her that I'm sent from the future me to teach myself how to be content To make use of the only time we have any control of, so I don't resent myself and end up moping and crying for wasting time and repent. I'd remind me of what it means to take action and not just bury myself in words and fiction. Words can change the world when accompanied with action, I know that, but now is the only time when I can actually get it into my system. If I had a time machine, I would live in my present and live it to the fullest and with no regrets. . . #scrapsfromthejournal #quarantinewriting #captainscarface (at Belmont, Victoria, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_3h6uWFHVF/?igshid=1p5y023qfxtov

“As they say, strength comes from struggle. So whenever you feel like the spiral of madness is getting to you, take a moment to breathe, to be fully aware of the reality going on inside your mind and the one in front of your eyes; for sometimes, is just a question of tuning our emotions just like we would tune in to a radio channel. Be fully mindful and allow yourself to learn and evolve towards who you really are and want to be.” ~Nel~ #nelmoschetto #writersclub #writersclubs #quarantinewriting #quarantinelife😷 #covi̇d19 #quarantinechallenge #inspirationquotes #quarantineinspiration #growthquotes #discomfortzone #discomfortisgrowth #growthquotes #writersfollowwriters #writersconnection #ladywriter (at Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-1GJa4HM21/?igshid=tymlegwml7au

4. What’s something that people get wrong about you?

Ah, misconceptions. Always fun.

Truth be told, I can’t think of much that people get wrong about me specifically; rather, I’m susceptible to the misconceptions that come from being part of a certain category of humans.

There’s the assumption that I must want a family, because I’m a woman.

There’s the assumption that I must miss my “home” country, because I’m living abroad.

There’s the assumption that I have a defined career path, because that is the conventional way of things.

C’est la vie.

Landscape

OCEANS AND NOSTALGIA

There is color in her eyes as the sun dissipates into the ocean creating a red glow, 

setting her hair aflame and her soul into placidity. 

The salty air kisses the air as she moves along the walk,

The atmosphere of something new and something long gone in the past. 

Nostalgia bites at the corners of her eyes with flashes of a moment in time-bittersweet, with her family in a scene not unfamiliar to the one set before her. 

The light dwindles and she begins her dance along the edge of the ocean where the water is lapping against the sand. In this moment she is gratitude. 

Bounding across the dunes, she is connected, in a state of “very.” 

Reaching her fingertips to the sky, she becomes part of the landscape.

The never ending nightmare

It’s past midnight

Still not sleeping

When is it going to be alright ?

I’m breathing and breathing

The air fills my body

Pain in my chest

Definitely not leaving me

I just want to rest

I keep thinking

I feel lonely

I start panicking

No one is holding me

Alone in Brighton. I have recently gone on my first real trip all alone. It wasn’t long, in fact it was pretty short, but it was a start. One of the most important things in life, in my opinion, is to be comfortable with ourselves. Not to be scared of our own company, or to be seen hanging out alone. This trip was an important step in eliminating feelings of unease and anxiety, of accepting myself the way I am, of realising how much I enjoy and love everything and all I have to offer. #alonetrip #travel #writersofinstagram #writer #write #travelandwrite #traveladdicted #travelalone #tripwriter #writingatcafe #writingatcoffeeshops #dontbescaredtotravelalone #quarantine #quarantinelife #quarantinereminiscing #quarantinewriting #quarantinewritingclub (at Mojo Coffee House) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_7TcbfF4Go/?igshid=1g167y1bd0052

Is this mine?

Whittled thumbs, down to bone. Look amongst the flies' wings to track pantsuits on their owners. Match up? Perhaps in a snarled tone that snakes your grizzly body. Shaken? Unkempt? I'm not sure yet. However, it startles me to know a handsome fly is without its wings. Maybe they'll make goodly wines in their next conceptual summons. Off the floor, they go. One by one. You've picked them up. Nooses shoot down from the guise of your focus. Rings like ears -- inaudible -- flexing off the corners of the spiderlike tendrils into smoke. Perhaps they'll make a movie, where you're the fly and the outer stitching is close-up, in frame. Your last words in disassembled dress. Act nicely, and maybe it'll be your photograph that shakes off the table one night where my keys are lost and your hand forms a hook again.
