For many years, writing has been a passion, but it wasn't until a year ago that I began to share it with the world. My plan was to first introduce the writing, and then myself. So, a year later I'm doing just that. My name is Lisa and I am the writer behind the pen.… Continue reading The Writer Behind the Pen

Without You
What is the sea without fish Or the night without stars? What is the bee without its honey Or the bird without its song? It's like an empty canvas An unplayed instrument Or a tune with no music Like a garden with no flowers A ship with no anchor Or an empty letter That's me… Continue reading Without You
