Worth the Risk


Worth the Risk
By Annette Camp
November 3, 2024

Craving deep connections
means stepping out on a
ledge, knowing the ground 
beneath might be uncertain. 

Yet, trusting that some
souls are worth the risk,
because they feel like a
warm, familiar blanket. 

Laughter comes easy,
silence feels safe and the
spaces between words are
filled with understanding. 

There is no need to rush
in this dance of souls.
Move with the grace of
intention and take your time.

Knowing that every
step forward brings you
nearer to the heart of
what you seek and long for.

Let each choice be deliberate,
like selecting fruit at its
ripest, knowing that true
connections are the sweetest.

Here I Lay


Here I Lay
By Annette Camp
October 17, 2024

It runs deep.
It's in my
bones and
the core of
my being.

It's on my
face. It's 
in my hugs.
Yet, I remain
in silence.

I want to be
at her side
as she moves
through life, to
hold her hand.

I wait to
hear her
voice and
see her eyes
once again.

She's trapped
in my head 
and my heart.
She has to
know this.

But here I
lay with my
love for her
unspoken. 
Yet, undenied.

It Fell From Her Eye


It Fell From Her Eye 
By Annette Camp
September 2, 2024

It hurts my heart to feel 
her emotions from the 
other side of a screen.

If I were there, I'd give 
her a hug. A long heartfelt 
hug of comfort in whatever 
she was holding in her heart.

There's a visual message 
of a tear gathering in 
the corner of her eye. 

It could fall onto my finger 
and I would feel with her. If 
she only knew I was here for 
her. Then. It fell from her eye.

Ramblings of Remembering


Ramblings of Remembering 
By Annette Camp
(Inspired by Courtney Bohlman)
August 29, 2024

Confusion.
Control.
Struggle.
Distraction. 

Slow down.
Stillness.
Unfoldment.
Guidance.

Uncertain.
What's next
limits the 
what's now.

Surrender.
Simple. 
Clarity.

Trust.
Peace.

Transformation.
