Complications

So tired of the secretions

Bare skin thick until it reaches the bone

Threads hung loosely to provide comfort

For someone other than myself

Engulfed in what has been

And reminds me of what will never be

Heard so many rumours

Some of which are my own

Keep on forgetting why I call this home

Tugging at my hair

Press my lips to the empty and secluded air

Color on my cheeks

Panting in my lungs

Nature once provided me a haven I could not describe

Now I have no where to hide

Wrap myself up in a blanket that smells like you

And for a second I try to convince myself...

I am okay.

Writer Profile
Stacie Brantley


I recently lost my twenty year old brother in a one vehicle car crash. I have been writing since I was almost eleven, but I suppose with perfect understanding my most recent works have involved the death of my brother and my coping. Sometimes it seems that it is my only way of coping. And sometimes I can not even write anything.
