A black and white photo of a long crack running along a paved surface. There is water standing in the distance on the left side of the crack that shows a brief reflection of the sky.

I wonder How a heart and mind Can take so much When the weight of things get so heavy That a person can get swallowed and crushed When there’s nothing but tears And a hollow pit in your soul Even though you know Or honestly, more that you hope There’s absolutely no substance To the truth and the lies That trauma shapes as reality in your fears Love and loss will always be Two separate sides of the same coin And I wonder Just how much My soul can handle Before it cracks and breaks “Wonder” ~ d. marie

Writing can be challenging, but it's a lifeline.

The blank page listens without judgment, allowing us to express emotions.

This month, I'm using writing as a quiet act of self-care, even if it's just a sentence a day.

Working on a pitch for this tv pilot I wrote and in the middle of the night it hit me like a ton of bricks, the show is about my mom…. Happy Heavenly birthday.
