Falling, Floating
Originally Written: November 16, 2008; because I like random thoughts… and I love him. For you I’m falling and floating at the same time. My heart pounds like tribal drums for you. Beating so fast, sounding as one lone beat continuing. For ...

Disdainful Glance
I was so excited. It was my birthday today, and Robert had told me yesterday that we needed to “talk”. Now, I know this sounds bad, but I was convinced that it was about the “next step” in our relationship. Rob had always been g...

Get To Class
What the hell was wrong with her? Why wasn’t she jumping up and down with joy? I voiced my first question. “You really are out of your mind. You’re so self-absorbed, you can’t even see what’s happening.” Lissa’...

I love You
I dragged my feet all day, and the only time I perked up was when I saw Rob’s gorgeous face, waiting for me. His dark brown, curly hair was a tiny bit long and was a little crazy around his heart shaped face. He had incredible cheekbones. It amaz...

Only What a Gentleman Would Do
“What? That I love you? Sorry, boy, nothing’s going to change that.” I tweaked the tip of his nose playfully. He mumbled something, and I thought it sounded like “This might.”, but I wasn’t positive. “What?R...

Oh My God

“What the fuck?! You what?” I sprang up from the bench, a cold fist of despair clenching over my once-warm heart. “I slept with someone.” He said slowly, as if I was the most idiotic person ever. He kept his hands over his head,...

What You Want
“Becky- don’t! Please, you’re making this harder for me.” “Harder for you? What? How does that make sense?” I placed my hands on my hips defiantly, staring him straight in his eyes. God, it made me sick how gorgeous ...

As Much, But Not More
Oh my God, I can’t do this, I thought. I can’t face him. I still love him. Why do I still love him? And after all he did to hurt me? “God! What an idiot I am!” I put my hands over my face as quick sobs racked my body. I felt his...

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...

Listen
Listen closely can you hear it? that barely audible sound can you hear it? do you know what it is? that faint distant sound it repeats a pattern ba bump ba bump can you hear it? do you know what it is? because if it weren’t for you that heartbe...

Eternal Nobodies
Hooded, we walk under cover of moonlight, striding slowly toward our target like shadows. I like to think that it’s so he can get away, but the mark never does. Their screams echo in my mind, taking the place of whatever memories I lost. With the...

Home is Where the Hearts Are
Pausing at the front door I rested my hand on the heart-shaped door knob. Much of this was my fault. If I hadn’t left, I could have prevented the house’s decline. Hopefully, it hadn’t been gutted. The house was not as I remembered it....
