poetry – Page 3 – You're here! I'm B.Still. My name comes from my acknowledgement of the importance of stillness for growth and reflection. It's also a play on still photography. My joy comes from creating beautiful, captivating images of products, and people! My photography includes product photos, events, service photos (ex. a chef in action), and portraits!

Fitting

Effortless connections Vibes that synchronize Diving deep into the infinity pools of your joy Puzzle pieces fitting like fingers to a glove We mesh… We just…work

She does it for the art She does it for the hell of it She has to let it out Because she gets so into the world she receives- She has to have an outlet She has to say what her mouth can’t Screaming is out of her nature She meditates Reciting mantra after mantra, ButContinue reading “This writer that I know…”

The One That Got Away

I’m the One. The One your mother told you to cherish. The One your father told you not to mess over. The One media deems to be a “basic bitch” in one breath, then makes memes about craving in another. I’m the One. The One you don’t want. The One that you’ll check up onContinue reading “The One That Got Away”

Guidestones

The rock of the land was the first paper. We wrote what we felt was law. We wrote our stories. We wrote our lives. We wrote for our children and the many generations to come after them. We stopped leaving pebbles as a trail to the truth and the light through the dark. We startedContinue reading “Guidestones”

I believe in time travel

Set the date and turn the key I am all strapped in ready to take this ride with you. Hand and hand we travel through time- stopping everywhere we can cut and paste one another into. Get in where you fit in because I vow to make room. All we need is a time machine,Continue reading “I believe in time travel”

Myocardial Infarction

There is a joy that enters A smile that stretches across my face Uncontrollable butterflies compacting the heart. Heart flutters sound scary, right? Like the end is near? But it’s precisely the opposite. Your words make me feel like everything has just begun All while possessing a familiarity that one could call home. All fromContinue reading “Myocardial Infarction”

Tough Crowd

It’s not funny. People are out here hurting, Doing whatever they can to fill their voids to mask their open wound. And you laugh at that? You find humor in them like they aren’t doing the same thing as the rest of us Sure, their methods may be different, but who are you to judge?Continue reading “Tough Crowd”

Soundtrack

Boys in books are always better. We were delusional since toddlerhood, watching movies and hearing stories of guys like Prince Charming- rescuing us, sweeping us off our feet, kissing us while fireworks blazed in the backdrop. Utter foolishness. This fluffery had me believing that there would forever be background music throughout my life. They createdContinue reading “Soundtrack”
