    Last night I felt you near, as near as my own skin; With eyes that I’ve envisioned countless times in my dreams. Underneath the moonlit sky you pranced around in glee; In the place where you had left me – ages ago it seems.    In the hour of my ruin, you offered me reprieve;…

    You ask, “Do you think we’re friends in every universe?”  My reaction is instinctive. Of course we are. You’re everything to me. My muse and my other half, as familiar to me as my reflection in a mirror. There’s nobody in this world that I consider myself closer to, nobody who understands me the way…

    We look in the windows of apartments, rich and middle-class and imagine lives of ours. Swapping clothes with the woman lighting candles on her dining table. Cutting my hair like the woman reading under a lamp in her little library. Drinking wine that’s not from Aldi with just a few people who fill the entire…

    Brian Wilson, singer and principal songwriter for what today must look like an oldies act, The Beach Boys, is an interesting figure in the list of many heartbroken musicians that, understandably, pour their poor souls into the music so dearly loved by many. I say interesting because the guy’s been through more hoops than the…

    I remember the first time I held you.  So tiny, so fragile. Your eyes were wide with unshakable curiosity as you explored your new home for the very first time.  You were everything I could’ve ever asked for. I could deal with all the gross things to come, but if that was the price of…

          As winds dance violently with my hair – I catch my mind wandering far and near – miss take my thoughts away from me – my country my soul desires to be – home        Again, my mother’s arms embracing – my Eyes full of tears, my heart racing –…

    This may be what kills me. In that moment Xanus could control nothing but his thoughts and if he could have moved his lips, he would’ve begged for it to not be his last.   After everything he’d been through, for this to be the way he died seemed too cruel, but there was nothing…

    I have barely seen you these past few years, but there are holes in my heart that belong to you. And memories marked with your name in the buzz of my head.  Do you remember my phone number from when we were kids? I want to call home. But the numbers disconnected, nobody answers. In…

    The Song of the Forever Rains by E. J. Mellow is a charming book to read when you want a simple romantasy without too much complication and to gain an actually nice, generic book boyfriend. It is the first book in a trilogy revolving around the Mousai, otherwise known as the Basette sisters. Each sister…
