And I'm pretty sure she's thinking of me 'most every minute of every day. Just like I am of her. And I'm pretty sure she'd love to read this as much as I'd love her to read it as she's sitting in some boring meeting, dreaming about the weekend coming up, the one that'd see... Continue Reading →
Every once in a while
I'd get a sudden feeling of hope of a better future. As if it was now that the life I was living Would start more closely resembling The life I was dreaming of.

The New
When I get or experience something new, I always try to make it feel Like it's not as soon as possible, So that it'd be like I'd always had or experienced it; Like it'd never been away. I guess it's because A "new something" is fleeting While a "something" lasts a little longer. The transcience... Continue Reading →
A Singing Voice
I just came across a poem called A Singing Voice by Kenneth Rexroth. It's not the first time I've read it, but it's been years, I believe, since I last did so.

Put me on an Island; Lock me in a cell; Bring me to Heaven; Bring me to Hell; Places don't matter; Nor do the people; Things will not affect me... Okay, maybe a little. But today is my day And I will be free! I shall not be stopped -- I shall be me.
Holding Hands
Though not a believer in soul-mates, you are closer to one that I'd ever get without my resorting to blasphemy. I remember the first time I held your hand. I was expecting sparks; a skip in the beat of my heart; a shiver down my spine; But when I held your hand (and you didn't... Continue Reading →
