Author: Natasha Alexander

Writer, always Wife and Mother first. Perfect is overrated, I am flawed and yet loved. Now that I don’t chase perfection, I can chase my dreams. I have completed a "Write a Novel" course in 2015 through S.A. Writers’ College and passed with a distinction. I also completed the Copy-Editing and Proof-reading course through them in March 2016. My first Manuscript of 60 000 words has been written and currently seeking a publisher. I have been writing poetry since I was 14 and the reason/inspiration behind all my writing is a stand against women abuse. It is a cause that I hold close to heart. Something that started as an outlet for feelings too ghastly to speak about has turned into my passion.

Sadist Prey

February 12, 2018October 15, 2018 Natasha Alexander

She whispered her secrets and he used them to cage her, making her believe no one will understand, she’s a freak for only him to know. He climbed into her anxiety, playing marionette with her insecurities, molding her for only him to control. Blinding her with conditions covered in praises. Read more

No

November 17, 2017October 13, 2018 Natasha Alexander

The roses, I got the thorns. The candles, I got burnt. The virgin’s blood, mine bled from the heart. You took without asking, to you, my no meant maybe. You left me with a fuck you as you spat at my disgrace. I never said yes, I screamed no. It Read more

Real Me

October 22, 2017October 13, 2018 Natasha Alexander

I never changed I simply became the better version of myself It’s because of you… Did you know? The way you never showed any interest in my corrupted side, instead, you insisted on my virtuous self. You shone a light on a part of me that I believed I lost. Read more

All I have

August 27, 2017October 13, 2018 Natasha Alexander

It was the first time you didn’t fall for my smile, the one you realized wasn’t real. You took me home and tugged me in, You kissed my forehead and held my hand. I fell asleep crying. I woke up and you were still there, No answers to the burning Read more

Sanity

July 28, 2017October 13, 2018 Natasha Alexander

When the silence starts to scream,
when the pain starts to demand,
I search for a crowd,
one that can distract the deafening silence.

The Jacket

June 29, 2017October 12, 2018 Natasha Alexander

The ruthless cold shakes my being,
flooding me with memories,
reminding me of the days I walked naked,
freezing to death by my consuming pain.

Unexplained Presence

May 26, 2017October 11, 2018 Natasha Alexander

You say what you need to say You do what’s expected Yet there’s this presence I can’t escape You touch like you’re supposed to You love like requested Yet move like you’re caged You beg me to stay, you plead for me to trust. Yet, I see a shadow lurking, Read more

Thunderstorm

May 15, 2017October 12, 2018 Natasha Alexander

The clouds wrestles, vibrations felt inside your existence, lighting cracks illuminating the sky Clouds finally giving in, releasing the mass tears from heaven. Evidence left on the window, droplets dwindling down the glass pane. Her force is felt, you witness her magnificent breakdown, as the pure blue summer sky turns Read more
