I wonder what you’re like
When there’s nothing to celebrate
I wonder what you’re like
In the mornings before your big day
You won’t see my smile
Or the laugh I have when I’m tired
You won’t feel my skin
After I’ve spent a day in the sun
I can spend my time
Wondering what it would have been
Or I’ll tell myself gently
Farewell, my almost lover....
I saw her in a brief moment riding the train,
A book in her hand, what beautiful eyes.
We went to the movies, but I watched your laugh,
Delicate lips, what beautiful eyes.
The long ivory dress slipped across your hips,
Flowers in your hair, what beautiful eyes.
A bump on your stomach, I kissed our baby,
She has your eyes, what beautiful eyes.
We walk a little slower, but I won’t leave your ...

I’m so sick of this town. I can’t wait to get out. Can’t even get a decent movie theater here that doesn’t cancel movies!!

Jack and I had the best time at DQ! Chocolate oreo m&m blizzard. We hung out with Mason and Luke at the skatepark. Mom says I can go back tomorrow after she’s home from work!

Out for drinks at the pub tonight. Packed house. Billy brought hi...
My first kiss as your wife, take-off for life
Our first home, and our trip to Rome
It all started so high.
We moved to LA, for your role that paid
You made friends, and I did the shopping
The descent began.
Late nights at your desk, I slept restless
Mornings alone, Easter at home
Seatbacks upright.
A baby in the Fall, to fix our misfalls
Less love, and definitely less sleep
Grab your oxygen ma...
On my first night alone, my shoulders relaxed. On my sexond night, I saw it wasn’t so bad.
You say it’s my fault you’re sleeping at your dad’s,
But really I couldn’t care less.
Before you left, I tip-toed on glass,
Couldn’t be too loud, or I’d wake your wrath,
Or too quiet, or you’d call me a dork.
Now I’m sleeping on clouds through the night
So thank you, Alicia, for the scars,
And of course, w...
Dinner by candlelight,
I wore my best dress
You bought me roses,
In your grey suit.
It was our first time
Without the baby
When you told me
You had something to say.
She was a mistake,
Not anyone I knew
A woman you met
A few months ago.
Now these roses
Are hidden away
Behind the jars of
Soft pears and milk.
Its been three weeks
And I haven’t said
If I’ve chosen to leave
Or stay for us.
I t...
I’ve been thinking about leaving him for some time now. We were young when we met, and we loved too quickly and deeply. Now our lives are intertwined. His likes are my likes, and I can’t seem to breathe without him.
I’ve practiced a few steps without him, but I feel like a baby learning to walk again, except I’m 31. As soon as I’m ready to fly, I’ll be out the door.
Where to go, that will be m...
They say when you take your first steps, you walk towards things you love the most. Your big brother, the toys he will finally share, or maybe the family dog who has been part of your world since the day you were born.
What we miss, though, is who was behind us, with her dimpled cheeks and brown eyes. The woman who taught us to walk and let go at the perfect time, all while letting a part of her ...
