Reflection on True Friendship

The other day an old friend gave me some good advice concerning friendship, which is a thing that isn't always given, but is earned like respect is, and is a law I hold sacred. He said to leave my fears behind me, for the first steps taken in our endeavors become the longest strides with no looking back. With there always being the chance that this could be my last day- In the time of my confession, in those hours of my d...

First Christmas

But, she had never celebrated Christmas before.

“Mommy,” his small voice was shaky as he stood in the doorway of his mother’s room. As she did most nights, Simone had fallen asleep sitting up with her back against the wall, surrounded by a sea of open text books and study notes. She heard the call but it was lost in the midst of a dream and the beautiful cries of violins. The dress she wore swayed as she danced. The tall, dark haired gentleman that wooed her lowered hi...

There's a tiny little bird singing loudly in my chest Singing songs about our friendship in the way that he knows best And he lifts his little head up just to open up his throat Spreading happiness throughout me with each loud and lovely note.

Together

I love you Baby...

Each day for the past few months we came together talking playing learning how to pleasure each other. We share our lives the good and bad and everything in between. Being each other’s comfort and joy as we grow stronger and closer morphing from friends into lovers

A Double Date

Karen, Janice, Henry and I go on a double date.

Karen and I set up our first double date for Saturday night. It confuses me, but Karen feels it is perfect. She and I will not be dates. She wants to date Henry and I get to date her best friend, Janice. Karen and I live on the same street two houses away. We have been friends since we were three years old. When we started school, Janice became our friend. Now we are seniors in high school. We spent all our school years t...

You came into my life an turned my world upside down,  showing me what a truly caring and loving friend is. You took the time to listen and have gotten to know the real me,  not the one I show the world however, the real me  --the one usually hidden by my walls. Your faith, trust, belief and most of all your love  helped me to grow more confident each time we spoke, hour-by-hour, day by day. Thank you for showing me you ...

I am the villain.

Let him who has ears to hear.

"Repent for your sin against your brother!" But what brother have I sinned against, for surely he and I are no longer brothers. Or so I didn't say, for of a truth I held little quarrel against him. "If 'twas another man, you would've been of a gentler tongue with he! 'Tis the truth! Unadulterated and pure, of the like you cannot deny!" I'll remember how you seized my words and beat them into blades, How ye who claims to b...

Mixed messages

He came to her, but who was the second choice?

He entered their room online and she smiled and said, “Hi.” He simply replied, “I have something important to ask you...” Noticing he sounded nervous, she asked, “What?” “Umm... how would you like to go out with me?” In shock and needing a little time, she asked him, “Can I have some time to think?” He said, "Okay."An hour or so later, she was about to message him back to give him her answer when she noticed he had change...

No Time

Too late

I stood on the bridge;the hand in my pocket holding thewatch you gave me before you died.it sat there alone in its perspiringwomb. the dark was more thannight; it squeezed through mypores. the glass grinned sheepishly, like a drunken mourner, and the numbersfell about likehailstones; but it was the hands that lifted an Accusing finger. as I looked down, a darker Me thanI looked up,and made me see that it wasIwho had empti...

Our Ride

With Love...

We are both so different in nature however in others very much the same When we are together we can talk for hours and hours yet it still will seem like mere minutes. No matter how long or what we try, Nothing, no amount of time will ever be enough to fill our want, need, or desire. Each day our heart beat grows stronger As we get closer and our hearts are further entwined. Looking at you Deep in your eyes I see my confid...

I was raised to believe That everything happens for a reason. It doesn’t matter if that is good or badThere will always be a purpose. So what happened between us? In those precious few moments When we held each other tightand passionately kissing over and over. To the moments you told me During a voice call when you told me That you loved me for the very first timeAll must have had a reason. But know you have left And I c...

First steps

Everything begins with a single step

Before we could walk we first have to crawl Taking one wobbly step with aid of something close.Learning how to balancewith each step we slowly we gain more confidence. I guess the same can be said of relationships each time we open ourselves up to someone new there is the a fifty, fifty chance that we might stumble, fall or gain momentum and soar like an eagle fly. But before you can do either It depends how you are treat...

But I'm Not

Short piece. I saw him during class and the words just flowed.

If I was still your friend, I would be so proud of you right this second. If I was still your friend, you would not quite understand why, but accept it quietly, like you did everything else about me. If I was still your friend, I would greet you every morning, smile, stick out an arm and wrap it around your shoulders.If I was still your friend, you would smile back and tell me about your day. If I was still your friend, I...

"How do you know someone's a real friend?" "Oh, you're getting real deep now. What brought this on?" "It's one person really. We always seemed to have a good rapport." "A rapport? What's that mean?" "We got along. We enjoyed each other's company.""So, what's the problem now?" "The problem is they've closed me off." "How? What've they done?" "Well, not much. Just stopped talking to me. And they don't answer calls." "Things...
