as the clouds gather in gray clusters overhead, my feet shuffle to the beat of highway traffic, an out-of-time metronome. the telephone is a poor replacement for your lips... if lacks the warmth of your eyes. as my thoughts fill the air, your voice, like the crackle of flames, fades in and out - a static that greets my ears with the grace of snow ( Read more... )

merry christmas to everyone, blah blah blah ( Read more... )

one month ago today, you asked me to be yours. october 4th. a month before that, you came to JMU at my request, and i knew that you were exactly what i wanted. that was september 3rd... but it wasn't until the early morning hours of september 4th that i finally worked up the courage to kiss you. so today is not only the 1 month anniversary of us ( Read more... )
