  • Graveyards at Night by K Hoffman

    Graveyards at night. A place of solitude. A place of fright. Hidden behind a headstone Hidden from the world Just me, here alone. Alone with the people Lying here at rest. Looking at the church steeple I see the moon Looking back at me. A full moon To light my path. As I walk through…

  • Love’s last sustaining breath by K Hoffman

    How do you get someone to love you? I want to hold your hand. I want to feel your lips against mine. I want to feel your body next to mine. I love to be near you. I don’t want you to leave. When you do I feel so empty. I eagerly await the good-bye…

    A mother’s kiss can make an owie go away. A mother’s homemade soup can cure the flu. A mother’s hug can make all the cares in the world disappear. I miss that.

  • I Don’t Like This Feeling

    I don’t like this feeling. I don’t like feeling. I feel strange. I can feel everything happening in my body. I feel weak. Nauseous. I can fell my heart beating in my chest. I can feel every breath I take. Especially the ones I don’t take. My chest feels heavy. It is hard to breath.…
