today was a sad day at the co-op. one of our longtime members and volunteers was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 6 weeks ago and passed away this morning. i didn’t know him well but he was always very kind and he will be missed by all who knew him.

the silence of a falling star lights up a purple sky and as i wonder where you are, i’m so lonesome i could cry.
i can’t help you when you’re sad that’s a constant source of pain to me because i want to really bad even though you make it seem like nothing it’s starting to come to me i didn’t know about, i hadn’t figured it out but it’s starting to come to me now a little bit too late

the letter i received
about a month ago, i was at work assisting an older woman when she made some very rude comments about my facial piercings. it ended with her calling my face “annoying”. inside, i was so furious that all i could do was laugh and walk away. in these situations, i always wonder why it is that some people can’t see past the metal in my face? i think i’m beautiful. i am...
the other day
an elderly couple passed by me as i was stocking the shelves at work. the woman said to the man, “see anything you’d like sweetheart?” and he replied, “just you.” i smiled and i am smiling now thinking about it.
happy yesterday to any and all mothers.

lovers like we are should really be better to each...
my heart hurts. i’m angry. why do we as humans forget to love? it’s one of the strongest of our emotions and we still haven’t learned. i hate it. i wish we were mind-readers sometimes. i know it wouldn’t solve anything, it would only make things worse because we still wouldn’t be able to translate our thoughts. whatever i’m thinking could mean something...
i love waking up in the morning to a kiss and the words “i love you” spilling out of his mouth. our love feels too good to be true sometimes.

irony hurts.
i miss my grandmother. i keep seeing her in my head, her body still and alone. i wanted to grab her hand and hold it and tell her that i was sorry i didn’t write more, that i should have called more, said “i love you” more. but i couldn’t. seeing her leave me like that was enough, and there was nothing i could do to stop her from sinking into another world, hopefully one...
someday we will have it better, but at least we always have each other. ♥

i am so happy to have such a perfect friend and lover. i came home from a crappy day at work to hugs and kisses and a clean house, plus a corkboard covered in pictures of our boys. maybe today isn’t so bad.

Why?
i feel so lucky to finally have a real man who helps me to see what a beautiful woman i am. i have everything i deserve and i couldn’t be happier. i want this more than i’ve ever wanted anything.

i’m in love. my heart never doubts you. i am always craving you… the smell of your skin when your body is pressed against mine, the way you smile at me every morning when my eyes open wide into yours. i never thought i could want someone this much again. i want all of you, forever.
i don’t know how it’s possible to love a person as much as i love you in such a small amount of time, but i want it no other way. you are everything i want and need in a person and i hope that this will last.
