    The Body Keeps Score

    There is a war no one else can hear.   It does not sound like bombs or sirens— it sounds like overthinking at 2 a.m., like a heartbeat that won’t slow down, like silence stretching too tight across my ribs.   My mind is a general— cold, strategic, disciplined. It...

    A Lifetime Between Your Lips

    Your mouth is a promise half-kept, half-aching. Red like truth spoken too late, soft like a confession I’m afraid to finish.   I don’t touch you yet. That’s where the power lives— in the pause, in the heat gathering behind restraint. Your breath leans toward mine like it already knows how this ends.   There...

    Watching You Grow

    “Before you could walk beside me,  you learned to rest against my heart. In your tiny eyes, I see a love so pure  it quiets every storm inside me. Nathan, you are not just my son  — you are the softest piece of my...

    Without Any Light

    Remember when the music felt alive  Electric waves forming into thoughts Writing words was a means to survive   Simple days spent longing for love Never taking time to connect the dots Left alone as push turned to shove   Wasted moments a desperate stare Forgot the next...

    • Dear D,

      This piece brings in memories of writing letters, buying actual record albums, listening to the radio on an actual radio. I greatly appreciated the thought process in this write and the subtle warning to be aware of things lurking about. Terrific write. H🌷

    • Dreams are casting doubt once again
      It sometimes seems it’s so deliberate
      Like a stiff jab landing across the chin

      Fantastic, absolutely fantastic.

    • I walked through this one like the aisles of record stores, and frantically scribbling in my spiral bound notebooks, and trying to survive in a world full of so much that sorting it out became impossible…so we just chose live in the music and the words. The conversations that felt monumental then…come back today and feel even more incredibly relevant. But we hadn’t thought of them in years. Like the binding of time through word and thought. So hard to feel those moments in a time like now, when everything is fake news and nothing can be trusted. You took me on a journey here, my friend

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Willow. So glad you connected with the write my friend. Oh, the aisles of the record stores. That’s a sweet memory from the past. Talking music brings people together I’ve always believed that. That’s some incredible commentary dearest friend, you’ve been missed around here. Warms my heart to see you wandering the halls again. Glad I could take you on a journey.. Appreciate you.

    • Great vibe on this one, nostalgic but also fond of warm memories.
      Nicely penned.

      • Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Wally. So glad you connected with the write my friend. I’m a nostalgic guy sometimes, it’s nice to have a warm memory to visit, before returning to present-day reality. You’ve been on a commenting streak brother, thank you for your continued support. Appreciate you.
