To Breathe An Allegory by Mayteana Williams

Sometimes, out of everything that happens in life, its ok to just take a rest and reflect. If not we might miss out on how beautiful the world created is. Poetry, in its mysteries and meanings can give a person hope just long enough to get to the other side of the tunnel. I hope my poems warm the heart of anyone struggling in a cold winter, or sweltering summer to find a little bit of ease. These poems are, more or less inspired by the faith I grew up in and for me, my faith kind of stands out like a lighthouse whenever there is a lot of dark. Even though no one has to be catholic to read my poems, I really hope they lighten their heart a bit.
