She sat there, tears streaming down her face, using the sleeve of her uniform to wipe them away. For a decade, I have been partners with this courageous 5’2” individual with confidence and a strong sense of self. Until this day, I hadn't noticed my heart flutter in my ch...
She watched her from the doorway, quiet and unsure but hopeful. hopeful that last night hadn’t been a dream. Hopeful that after years of longing,of wishing and wanting, that she hadn’t finally lost her damned mind and hallucinated the best damn moment of her life.

and i love everything about you, day and night
the way you smile when you see me

Tears stain the page as I run to my comfort place longing for someone to turn to me and say
I see you I see your searching
I see your loss and how you’ve been hurting
But your still here and that’s all that matters
I hear the way your heart shatters

I want to be able to breathe
Maybe it takes a minute to finall...

I pulled away with a half hearted smile, rubbing my hands together, “Sorry. I’ll warm them up for you.”
She shook her head, knotting our hands together again. “No, you don’t need to do that. I’d gladly let y...
That night I returned to my chambers for tea with Bea. She sat atop my bed with a tray, as usual. Still giddy from my library visit, and _the kiss from Ad, _I joined her.
“Oh no, what’s that look?” She asked, clearly intrigued as to why I was so happy.
I grinned at her. “I kissed Ad.”
Bea gasped. “No! Tell me _everything._” She had a devilish look in her eyes, which I matched.
“Well, it all sta...
