Just Friends?
He says we're just friends, But if I don’t Talk for a single day, He grows restless, searching for my voice or my text. When I rest my head upon his shoulder, His hand finds my cheek, gentle and caring, —As if protecting something precious. When he takes my hand in his, It feels like an unspoken promise, —A quiet vow lingering between...

Protecting Ones Good Name
Protecting one's good name Not a kid's easy card game. Who does climbs towards fame, Who squeezes it buys shame; The picture not the same.... Better one an old dame, Clinging to her good name Than princess of just blame In morals badly lame One's good name is one's flame; Really, the thing men claim. Thus, you must n't it maim; Remain - not wild -...

Standing on a cliff, overlooking the ocean Waves roll in, lapping up against the boardwalk Toward the horizon gulls soar, occasionally Swoop down to scoop up a small fish... The rhythm of the ocean's pulse Beating, oblivious of me scanning the far horizon, off in the distance Thousands of...
