A wish

Is dreaming like eating ice cream?
Swimming in the ocean?
What if the things outside of us
were only imagined?
I can close my eyes and feel the sun
So how come when I close my eyes
and
I feel you
You're not really there?
An illusion
trick of  my mind
I am playing on  myself
like a piano
A string on a guitar
A song that is sung
but
not written yet
a book
I have yet to create
only in my mind
nothing outside of me
only in
You're only inside
not real
just a wish
created
not had
For I cannot live within myself
It would be considered treason
beyond reason
insanity
melting me
vanish
would I disappear
escaping
yet
fallen
blind
but what if
 what I made up
was real
What if you are the lie?
Then am I the crazy one?
Left to mutter in the corner
Thinking I am warm and safe
with the world closing in?

Success


"Being successful to me means not letting others define how you go about introducing your stories, not sticking to one genre, but exploring many. I just cannot put myself in the box so many authors are saying you must do in order to achieve greatness. I need to achieve greatness because I do not fit into the box of order they say you must present, and, or represent."-Angela K. Crandall

Forward Thinking

"Dipping your brush into different colored ink to form pictures is similar to that of placing your feet in the ocean to find out if you belong there. If we don't try, research, or explore our options, then we will never truly know where we belong. If we continue to use our imaginations in spite of those who tell us to act our age then we never really grow old, or give up instead we inspire."-Angela Crandall, Author

Past Tense

"I lay in the shadows of the night. The air is cool I tip up my head to stare at the stars. Sometimes I wish I was one of them. Maybe someday I will be, glowing bright in someone's life. Not just while I am on earth, but after I am gone. Time goes by so fast. I keep trying to grasp, to treasure each moment, but some as always remain better than others. I touch my tree behind me. Thank you, I think, thank you for your strong trunk, your leaves that turn red's, gold's, and yellows, for October days that will arrive once summer is gone. I look out into space letting myself be unaware of anything, but now. This moment, once gone, gone forever as time marches on I hope to move forward. I can never go back."-Angela K. Crandall, Author
