To Be

like red is to be fierce, bold, and seen

And just maybe that’s what I like to be

But in truth, I’m more like the pale little blue chair. There, but no one cares.

I am not the focal point of the photo.

And I am okay with that, but sometimes I want to be seen and heard and not care what the outcome or judgment may be thrown at me.

All I know is that I want to be true to myself so that I will be in the front or the back, but I will know my worth doesn’t matter if others see me, but that I see me.

Love writing poetry and reading tons of books. I also write short fiction stories and hope to include them on my page soon; I hope you enjoy my work, and thanks for stopping by my page.

  1. pameladbeverly – The East Coast – I was motivated to start my blog by my novel, Relations, however it revolves around people in general and human relations, in particular. And of course it's about writing which has been a lifelong passion of mine. Take a look around and if you like reading or listening, check out my novel, The Love Labyrinth, available as an e-book, paperback or audiobook! My new children's book, What if an Octopus Followed Me Home? is available. Autographed copies of all of my books are now available on my website as well as Amazon.
