Smile lighting up my world like a supernova explosion, Given confidence through speech causing anxiety expulsion, Looking into your eyes and reading the joy within, And wanting to ask the pressing question but being hesitant to begin. What if I’m wrong, What if I read to much into a simple greeting? What if I misinterpreted … Continue reading Decipher
Op-Ed: How My Love of Writing Began
All of this started back when I was sitting in my high school English class back 1995. We were studying poetry and were given the assignment of writing a series of poems.

She Flows Like Water
She starts to show her love like trickles here and there, It starts to pool around you as each drop gathers everywhere, Eventually it builds up until she cannot contain herself, And she starts to overflow because her love is her wealth, You peacefully allow yourself to submerge, She won't let you drown so you … Continue reading She Flows Like Water
