“Living is strife and torment,
disappointment and love and sacrifice,
golden sunsets and black storms.”
-Sir Laurence Olivier
For those of you who dont know me, my name is Amanda Samoyloff, tenderly referred to as "Smoy". I am a Southern California native with a track record for acting before thinking, which has steered me into quite a few precarious situations. Some of these moments you will come to know since this blog will chornicle parts of my past, present and future. I am a born to be actress, poet and humanitarian. But, unfortunately have spent the last couple years 'dealing' with life rather then living it. So this blog will be my revival, my journey, my mission, and my promise: of re/discovery.
“Missing” by Amanda Samoyloff
Traveling through the valley of the forgotten
Memories collide at the corner of my mind
licking open wounds
infecting my thoughts with the reminder of
yesterday.
Memories collide at the corner of my mind
licking open wounds
infecting my thoughts with the reminder of
yesterday.
A projection screen begins to play, hallucinations
glimpses of a girl-child
familiar are her eyes, of someone I once remember
running in a darkened field
chasing, screaming, unafraid
Nothing hovering around her but the innocence of
her thoughts,
glimpses of a girl-child
familiar are her eyes, of someone I once remember
running in a darkened field
chasing, screaming, unafraid
Nothing hovering around her but the innocence of
her thoughts,
Imagination dancing on the corners of her smile
riveting and beautiful
She stops laughing
Turns to look at the woman-child gazing at her with mystified eyes
I go to reach for her
and she disappears
disappears
disappears
she?
