• You wandered into the world, wide-eyed and in awe of everything.

  • We’ve had this word before.

  • It was a harsh statement. And I just stared at you, not quite understanding. I don’t love you anymore.

  • I often wondered where you were those days. What you were doing. If you were alone or sharing your soul with someone. I hope that you are sharing it, because I remember what that was like. Holding a tiny piece close to my heart because it shined so brightly. It felt like a hug from [...]

  • I was swept away by life. And you were still, immobile. Watching. And soon I had floated away from your sight.

  • Give me an example. Please show me how someone loves again.

  • I made an example of you. I reduced you to moments and facts.

  • This was the final chance. The last opportunity to speak the words. I love you. I always have. I always will. But he just stared at her. And she kissed him softly on the corner of his lips.

  • You never wanted the specific details. Never cared that stardust filled my lungs or that my hair had broken meteors tangled in.

  • She watched as he pushed the stroller smoothly, just a hint of hesitation in the way his body moved. She smiled slightly, deja vu washing over her as her mind remembered a similar scene from centuries and centuries ago. The baby inside cooed softy and perfectly. The young man’s eyes widened in recognition that he [...]

  • You are calling from a telephone booth in a city unknown to those back home. You are pushing a loose strand of unwashed hair behind your ear and reminding yourself that this is how you want it. You are biting your lip to keep the tears from falling as your mother pleads for you to [...]

  • Calling cross-country to tell you how I feel but the cords are tangled and the miles and miles in between cause my words to crackle from the static.

  • Bear with me now, althought I know that it is difficult to understand. I miss you, not just what we used to be together, but simply you. You changed me significantly and I cannot ever forget that. We parted from each other’s lives to early for my taste. It might have been soon enough for [...]

  • Chaos on the freeway. Bumper to bumper traffic with frustrated drivers who don’t use proper turn signals and believe that they are all King of the Road.

  • I watched the tide turn, the water slowly changing and gaining power. My feet were now in the position to be soaked by the sea. I didn’t want to move though. I didn’t want to leave the soft sand and the salty breeze. I was waiting for you to come back.

  • You waltzed in and out of my life so gracefully and fluidly that I almost thought that I had dreamed it. It had happened though. Especially the part where you left. The loneliness that surrounds me when I sit in my house, so silent and so still, is astounding. It is enough to bring me [...]

  • I was without you for so long. It doesn’t feel like I thought that it would to be back with you again. My mind had seen it through rose colored glasses, pretty in pink with a bow on top. Reality was far different than that. I don’t feel like I did before, I don’t feel [...]

  • We had a falling out. After all, everyone has them. It took me awhile to miss you. It seemed like everything just picked up and continued on after you were gone from my life. Friday nights were filled with other friends and my parents never dared to ask why you never came around anymore. Neither [...]

  • You waved your magic little wand and made everything okay again. You told me to trust you and to just believe in what you had to say. So I listened and I didn’t judge, I just opened myself up to you and you had to offer. I soaked up your wisdom and your everlasting love [...]

  • You made a smart remark about the boys of your summer and how you didn’t need him anymore. You made it seem like you hadn’t missed him at all during your months of sand and sunshine and salty waters. You went on and on, telling your circle of bleached blonde followers how the lifeguard you [...]
