Not a moment goes by that I don’t miss you.  Your smile and laugh became my source of joy.  The icy, skeletal fingers of death robbed me of that comfort.  Not a moment goes by that I don’t think about you.  It seems like yesterday, we sat on the sofa,  eating ice cream, gossipping about boys,  and longing for brighter days, a better life beyond the desert,  We envisioned a limitless future beyond ...

In a heap of agony, You would watch me die, Because I believed your lies. I cared so much. You cared so little. Now I’m drowning in a puddle Of sorrow and betrayal. You told me we would be forever. But for you, It actually meant never. I’m lying in a pool of despair, Because ...

You said with your actions I am not worth saving. You said with your actions You never loved me. You said with your actions You would let me drown in my thoughts. How then am I supposed to trust you? Why would I let you in again To the darkest depths of my soul? What ...

The clamor of her ringing cell phone earned a groan from the hungover blonde. With a swipe of a hand, the device sailed to the floor to disarm the blaring ringtone. Shifting away from the noise, she peered out the window, trying to tell the time. Her estimated guess, was midday by the bright sun ...

Thirty days and thirty nightscan never be enoughto get over you. The light you broughtinto my life is nowa distant memory. Every time I close my eyesI envision the happinessI thought I brought you.
