As most of you know, my blog is anonymous. I’ve never and will never connect my name to it.

Resolutely Timid aka Ass Backwards
Sometimes I feel like I get things ass backwards. Words are more likely to be music to me than any soundtrack will ever be.

Raise a glass for the other side of Someday.

You’re amazing You’re my light You are everything I’m not You humble me And by humble I really mean it. You’re perfection and I see it everyday. And I work so hard to keep up with you, but I am so exhausted. I am exhausted from trying to be perfect in everything I’m not. I … Continue reading
The heart of the Heart of it.
In my hands It’s all in my hands He’s in my hands He’s not safe there But he’d be safe there If I knew it. If I knew that he’d be safe there Then he’d be safe there. But how to teach myself How to make me know it? How to learn that if I … Continue reading
