About Me

I never told you that I love you. But. Feeling vulnerable scares me. The truth scares me. I know you may not believe me right now, but I want to be yours forever. Everything that goes along with that is my only desire.

--You told me to think about what I'm willing to give up. Your answer is this : everything. I don't want a life without you in it. Here or anywhere else. I want nothing and no one but you. I'll prove that to you every day from here on out.
--I understand promises mean nothing. So this is my starting point.

--I love you. With all of my heart and everything I am. I want your name, your children, and to share your life with you. I want to take care of you and in turn be part of a love that can overcome anything. I want to see you accomplish your goals. I want to support all the decisions you make. Even when it hurts my heart to see you leave for another country to fight for what you believe in. I want to be the one you think of before you fall asleep. I want to be the one to send you letters with updates and words of encouragement. I want your love and your heart the way you have mine. I'll love you forever. -Just say the word.
I'm beginning to learn patience. I trust with all my heart that time will prove to be on my side. I will wait, but continue my path towards independence, towards my future, with him in mind. I will prove to myself, to him, and to any who doubt my devotion, that I want no one else. The sweet isn't as sweet without the sour. These next three years are bound to make my eyes water, but in the end, I'll know I've won. He has my heart. I don't ever want it back.
--Have a safe trip. Please take care of yourself. Know I'm thinking of you. I'm a phone call away. Anything you need, you've got it. I'll miss you.

I'd like to meet:

Quest For Love
Jewel

From one world to another,
Thereâ€™s so much to discover
Feel so small inside,
But courage has no size
My heart knows where to go,
And I will follow

Moreâ€¦Itâ€™s the little things that make a difference
Itâ€™s the quest for love that brings us life
Itâ€™s a dream of what could be
That makes it all worthwhile
Like you being by my side
A love that only grows with time

Sometimes I lose my way,
Unsure, I grow afraid
Thereâ€™s no wrong I canâ€™t make right
With you standing by
It takes a friend like you

To remind me of what I knew

Itâ€™s the little things that make a difference
Itâ€™s the quest for love that brings us life
Itâ€™s a dream of what could be
That makes it all worthwhile
Like you being by my side
A love that only grows with time

Iâ€™ll be strong, Iâ€™ll be brave,
From your world and back again
We will go until the end, oh

Itâ€™s the little things that make a difference
Itâ€™s the quest for love that brings us life
Itâ€™s a dream of what could be
That makes it all worthwhile
Like you being by my side
A love that only grows with time

John Pilger
Watch any one of his films. Do it if you want to expand your knowledge of what our government is, promotes, and has done to smaller countries.
Do it because you care for people. Do it because you don't want to be a product of rich America. Do it because you have a soul. Do it because you'll be a better person for it. Do it because it needs to be done.
Michael Moore.
Nuff Said.
John Lennon.
He did a lot for the Peace movement and he's inspired me to become passionate about the idea of world peace.
Charles Bukowski.
Surely he is the greatest writer to ever live. I pick up his books and I'm taken to the bars and race tracks and alley ways that I'm sure my open eyes will never bare witness to. He touches me in ways I didn't think words on paper could. The amount of respect I have for him could never be described in this little box.
R.I.P Hank

Impossible Request

Shake me out of this hellish dream. I'm locked before this screen hearing bland words from this hand-held machine. I'm not sure how to break away let alone how to feel. Drag me away,...

As raw as it gets

You smirk and a bit of your upper teeth show. Gripped within the strength of your jaw is my heart. -My name appears in a letter - I hear you utter the syllables that form my identity - you...

Painful Proposition

Trade places with me. Try on my shoes. Feel my heart race when your name is heard. Experience the anguish of being tied to your words - as few and far between as they are. Be t...

8 minutes

Carrying two cups of pop - this time with lids and straws - I'm handed a cell phone. Unknown caller until I hear his voice. My breath no longer exists. Everything around me falls awa...

Nameless

Each cloud forms his name. The only constellation on the darkest night. Carried gently on every breeze. Swirling in every rain drop. Gripped in each ray of light. - Etched on ...

(no subject)

It climbs into the heart and plants the seed. But the world just kills it with it's hate and greed. The eyes don't see a peaceful place. Just the severe division of the human race. Based on color...

Secondhand Addiction

Spotlights stare at a mute billboard. Empty buildings fully lit. I wonder- who, on floors 8-17, needs flourescent light at 3:34 in the morning? I suppose the mice. Rows of street lamps and...
