  • On My Mind

    What do you see when you look in my eyes? A tiny brown box or open blue skies? Maybe a happy, simple-mind, indecisive young teen, With no worries, no cares, nor faith to be seen? I have had my share in the tears and the sighs, With cheery hellos and so...

  • Forget.

    And soon you forget her name, her face and her voice. All the things you did, the places you went and the people you knew, they don’t mean anything anymore. It’s all just faded into the past, like so many other things. Lost. A dog barks and a siren...

  • Let's Not Forget

    I was reading this book that said something along the lines of, we don’t realize our capacity to love until the person we love is gone. I think that’s because when someone leaves, we miss them. When we miss them, it’s not because they...
