Well I'm stuck in a hard spot with a beautiful new blooming romantic relationship because this person has asked me for my hand in marriage and I'm somewhat scared to make a big commitment to him like that knowing I've had bad experiences with my past relationships before him 

 

 

And mu mind is telling me to listen to my ? heart that is still beaten up because of ...

maybe, I.J.

i want to marry you.
maybe we'll both wear dresses 
maybe Skyler will be our best man
maybe my family won't be invited
maybe Steve will walk me down the isle
maybe our color will be black
or blue
or dark red 
or a deep purple
maybe you'll have half your head shaved
and I'll have an arm covered in tattoos
maybe our first dance will be to an Incubus song
maybe to an Ed Sheeran song

The Company you Keep. The Girl You Don't.

I'm not the girl you marry.

 

I'm the girl

you have the affair with

after you are married.

when things get

stale.

 

I kiss you because I want to

not because it is routine

comfortable

expected

I kiss you because I want you

 

I suck you because

it needs

to be sucked

not because

it's Wednesday and it's date night

 

that is why you seek me ou...

An Englishman's Home

An Englishman’s Home

 

Our life together has fashioned some melancholic times,

White lies and absurd secrets threatening our connubial bond.

Misfortunes have conspired to smash down our familial castle

Yet the walls and foundation laid beneath them remain strong.

 

And through the haze of shadowed memory and retrospect

Some little lights grow bright like welcome stars at ni...

Untried

The light of new possibilities

In the beginning

In the beginning he would wake at every peculiar sound that came from the babies crib 

In the beginning he would bring me a beverage as I fed his son whilst the moon was dimly lit 

In the beginning he would rush home from work eager to see the family he created 

In the beginning we were the people whom he could be himself and escape with 

In the beginning we were enough 

 

He wou...

He left

He left 

He left behind his broken wife and his scared son

He left

He left us cold, all alone with no one 

He left

 

The vows, they meant nothing 

The promises, broken 

I just wish we meant something 

More than just empty words spoken 

 

I cried for days at a time 

My young son wiped every tear 

Leaving us was a crime 

And now, it's been 1 year
