“It’s Been” by Cortney Joseph
I find it hard to put into words the changes I’ve felt come over me. It’s been scary, but amazing. It’s been stressful, but empowering. It’s been bubbling within my mind and soul, pushing a stronger and wiser woman to the top. It’s been calming. It’s been peaceful. It’s been God.
“At First Sight” by Cortney Joseph
That morning I saw the sunrise in your eyes. Beautiful shades of pink and gold, representing love and hope. Followed by a smile bright enough to light the sky with infinite hope. Arms of bliss waiting to wrap around me, for a lifetime of happiness and joy.

And just being plain old LAZY. I’ve been telling myself that I have to stop using these sad and depressed moods of mine… Read More
“The Weight” by Cortney Joseph
The thoughts weigh heavily, They invade my sense of peace, They take hold of me. They grow enraged and scold me, Loathe me for desiring to be free, And just a little happy. They weigh heavily.
“Admirer’ by Cortney Joseph
I was just thinking about you. Kinda wondering if I danced in one of your thoughts, or two. Or maybe if you dreamed of me on at night, possibly a few. Thinking on how these knots in my stomach would twist if you knew… That I’ve loved you for life, indeed… I do. Hoping that… Read More
“The Lonely Friend” by Cortney Joseph
I don’t feel… Seen. Heard. Loved. Cared for. Appreciated. I don’t feel thought of, Only called on when convenient. Only spoken of, and negatively, when I couldn’t give what was needed.
