Chicken Noodle Soup and Bread Sticks
Remember that was a cool thing, they’d serve them up hot, you could get take out and be a real romantic with chicken noodle soup and bread sticks. I can almost taste the soup today, the breadsticks warm to my touch, you were so under the weather that day, the bike ride was a piece…

The Rippling Effect
Its meaning is contagious when all else is failing, lives seem to unravel, a moment of loss, a second further, and there are more and more even, the rippling of our emotions, shed light upon each other, and when we turn, begin to love, suddenly that persona we are so afraid of becomes attractive, asks…

Three Years Later
I still want to figure it out even when it doesn’t matter, I think about those days, all the different ways we did live our lives, we did hide our sorrows. I think about the time now, the what ifs the why nots the constant barrage of never knowing how. We live a certain way…
