Poetry and Spoken Word

I am, first of all, a poet, above everything else. I've been writing since I can remember. It was my way of dealing with life. I shared it with no one. I only used it as an outlet. My written words became known to others strictly by accident, and when I seen that I can capture someone elses attention and lead them to feel a story that I lived, I knew God gave me a gift.

Time To Let Go(Smile for The Memory).jpg

This one is pretty self explanatory. I would truly regret the fact that it came from within and someone never understood the meaning.

The Last Image.mp3

This song is definitely one from deep within my heart. I feel that I have been destined to do something like this for quite some time. Please read the lyrics as you listen as I have also posted them along with this. I hope that no one labels me as a "wannabe" or anything like that. Creativity when it comes from the heart has no limitations.

Before My Spirit Breaks.jpg

There always seems to be something or someone who saves us when we're on the edge....I wonder if maybe one day there won't be.

If U Ever.jpg

Again I found words coming from nowhere. I was singing the melody too, and here I am. I put it in poetry form, but as I read it I am singing to myself.(no one else will listen)

This is a visual I created. I thought it might be kinda neat to post this here because it's a true representation of me and what I'm about.

This Is Me, This Is Not.jpg

When you're a writer you tend to put it all out there, your heart and soul. I don't think at anytime has anyone been confused about the person I am through my poetry or songs, but, I think this one was written for more of a clarification for myself. It's raw and simple, and we all know who we are and who we aren't.

These are words that woke me up. Maybe they'll be words that will wake you up too.

I stopped writing for awhile. I felt that I had nothing to say. The truth is, my heart always speaks, so here it is. :-)

That's Just My Savior these Days.jpg

This is the first thing I've written in a while. I woke up at 7:30 this morning and the words to this song were in my dream. I was listening to this song on the radio in my dream. How crazy is that?

12th Of May.jpg

This is dedicated to my brother who has been in my thoughts and in my heart quite a bit lately. I miss him so very much, and I'm pretty certain he knows it.

As you read this look deep into your soul....maybe, just maybe, it will have true meaning for you.

Answer.jpg

As difficult as it has been, and I'm sure will be again....it's not all that hard to know within yourself what tomorrow holds. I know we are told not to live in yesterday, and that's good advice, but to breathe the freshness of a certain moment....I think is the one exception to the rule, don't you?

Within My Reach.jpg

It's hard to live in today and not think about tomorrow. The moment is what matters, but when the moment is dark, the light we search for is within our reach.

Praying.jpg

This is another song that I just now wrote. I have to be honest and tell you that this was inspired by watching Carrie Underwood sing on American Idol, Idol Gives Back. When words come to me unexpected like that, there's only one place where they can come from. I know, and it shouldn't be hard for you to figure it out.

For Every Heartache.jpg

This is just a few lines from a song I recently wrote. For those of you who don't know, I write songs and sing too. Please if you have the time go to my "Angela's Music" folder and have a listen sometime.

Colors OF Life.jpg

The times when I felt most alive was when I would take a walk every day and take it all in. It's easy to get caught up in every day life and barely have the time to breathe, but if you take a moment to feel the silence and take a good look around, you will see life so differently. Even if it is just for a few moments.

Such a beautiful creation, yet so dangerous in life.....metaphorically speaking, lightning does strike twice.

I found this picture and thought it was so cute. The look of wonder in their eyes is priceless. I think that sometimes we have the exact same look in our eyes.

Love & Life.mp3

I know that this type of music is very rare, but honestly, I have been doing this for so long. Writing is and always has been everything within me, and everything that sorrounds me. Love & Life are just the benefactors, if that makes sense.

Perfect Life?.jpg

I am only left to assume as the true answer I may never know, although it is within my realm of possibilities to believe I may someday find out.

Sometimes your heart makes your eyes see what is only viewable to you, but then again, maybe others see it too. You never really know.

Angela,
These are so good!!!! You are very gifted, in a way most of us can only dream about or wish for. Don't, under any circumstances, stop doing this. It's heartwarming, uplifting, and sorely needed!
love,
