Remarkable
Loved, accepted for who you are. Turmoil which came undone. You welcomed me with open arms, offering guidance unbiased. Male or female, straight or gay, you amazed me with your open arms. This is my dad, who extended the same kindness he had given my brother. To me, he said, he hoped that if the time ever came that his advice I would need, in life and love, he would help guide me. Male or female,...
Later
A promise made to set things straight. Swelling feelings held at bay for just a bit longer. Wait, wait, and the moment will come - then, right then, will I say the words I’ve always felt but never said. Words that you deserve for your heart. The goodness you show and the home that you are - the time will come when you will know just how much you have come to mean to me.
But this time never...

My laugh that ended with a snort, the chagrin I fleetingly felt before you laughed as well - I remember them now,...
“I love you.” Words so casually spoken that tore right through me.

Foreboding
Moments come and go in our lives when events or occurrences trigger something within us that quake throughout our being. Soft murmurs of insecurity can easily give way to complete doubt just as a pebble could easily drift through a pond. Upon entry, the impact can be swift; explosive in a way that leaves no doubt that something is coming. At other times, this entry is smooth, leaving the surface...

Sweetness
Those who know me best understand my nature: an incurable romantic, I swoon not over the overly-played out scenes, but the little gestures that are the building blocks of a memorable relationship. Sure enough, the bedroom is of course an important aspect of a connection, but the glances thrown when someone thinks the other isn’t looking or lingering just a few seconds longer where the other...
Refuge
A place of my own to throw whatever excess of random thoughts and fits of fancy I have into the vast depths of the internet? Doesn’t sound like a bad idea at all.
