A MONSTER UNDER MY BED
Sometimes, as I sit in class, surrounded by other kids just like me, I close my eyes…letting my thoughts take me to a better a place.
A place where I can be myself and not pretend to be somebody I’m not. A place free of judgments. I like it here…I feel safe.
Suddenly, I’m startled out of my trance by the bell. My peers hurry out the door.
Slowly I drag myself out of my seat, grabbing my backpack…I think, “It’s just another day as a high school teenager.”

THE CITY OF ALL POSSIBILITIES
OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA
I fell in love with the city by the bay the first time I visited.
Walking up and down the streets, I felt at home.
The smells, the people, the architecture.
Simply unique.
The word eccentric?
Creativity flowing through the air, is a better description.

THE SENTIMENTAL SUNSET
I fear I will never love again.
Either you love him and he doesn’t love you
or
he loves you and you don’t love him.

DEAR PAXTON
She feared him more than she could express.
She wasn’t going to tell him about her move. Perhaps, after she was safe and secure in her new home and far away from him.
Maybe, just maybe she would call him to relieve herself of any guilt she may be feeling towards him and about their relationship.
Fear gripped her heart as she shuttered with the thought of coming face to face with him again someday.
She prayed that day would never come, but her fears kept it alive, especially in her dreams.
For now, she would be safe and maybe he would soon forget her…

RAINBOW FALLS – MAMMOTH LAKE CALIFORNIA
To live life, is to live in the present.
The past remains in our memories,
The future strives in our dreams,
But the present is our existence.

The Lost Diary of Jane Doe
To love someone is to be vulnerable,
vulnerability is raw.
Simplicity of love is to love completely,
but love is one-sided.
Love someone deeply,
but they don’t love you the same.
Or do we simply accept the person who loves us,
therefore, not loving them passionately back by being shielded.
Love is risk,
protecting our heart means not loving back.
Can two people love each other at the same time,
Or is it one-sided.
Complete and passionate love are both hearts uniting into one.
never one broken.
