Consumed With You

written by: Coffee Girl

@nikkinapi

If I cut my heart out of my chest
it would be wrapped in your name

If you opened my brain
it would be covered with images of you

My mouth still has the taste of you

My nose still has the scent of you

My skin still feels your touch

If you cut me I would bleed your name

and you know what?
It kind of sucks

I am a lover of all things artistic.
As a kid I would write stories but stopped somewhere along the way and have recently become inspired to try again. Poetry is actually kind of new for me but I'm giving it a go.

I live in the small town of Long Lake, Minnesota, west of Minneapolis. I worked many years as a sales and technical training instructor. I began writing seriously in 2011 by writing a poem a day for a year. I loved the process and stayed with, focusing on rhymed poems and haiku. In 2015 I met a fellow writer who encouraged me to begin writing short stories. I did. In early 2018 I submitted my first story on-line and it was featured on CafeLit. I have been off and running since then. Bridge House Publishing is releasing a collection of twenty-seven of my stories later in 2020. I love the process of coming up with an idea and creating a story that hopefully has both emotional impact and is interesting to read. I have no plans on stopping. Many thanks to Spillwords for featuring my stories, and thank you to those who read them and who voted for me. It is truly an honor to have been selected as Author of the Month.
