Written for Awards and Nominations What do you see # 144 and our host https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/author/sadje19/ I sit between worlds, watching. A thin layer of dust separates two dimensions. Two versions, of one person, and only the Elfin can see them born, grow, and change. Mostly, they stay the same. Sometimes they go to different places,Continue reading “Birth Mother”

In my little, red boat, I canContinue reading “My Little Boat”

Pain, a feeling of unkempt emotion falling in black tears. Tabitha had days when she could cope with her past. She would wake up, beat away the fog in her mind. Keep busy. Always keeping busy.
