HIS STORY
This is the story of the boy who adored you.
Not a cruel word spoken, no advantage taken.
He will whisper into your ear like a hummingbird.
Never asking for anything in return.
This is the story of the boy who loved you.
Who loves you now and loved you then.
He came running when you needed him.
And left when you said you no longer did.
This is the story of the boy who left you.
Who pleaded, "If you don't love me then let me go."
You cried at his words for the first time.
Only because he said them before you could.

Poetry: Challenges of love
by Alec Machet
Scared To Say
One more day passes slowly
And another hour dies
I rest my head in my hands
And wait
Time stops
And I wonder why
I'm
As the sun slowly sets, I face another cold and lonely night
He gets all slicked up, out the door he goes and soon his truck
by JCW
He was dangerous
Like a loose cannon
Says he's going to get on his feet
but I never saw him standin'
He spills viscous words
by Polana Fehu
Love is the rain.
A light haze settling on tropical skin,
Gently soaking through clothing
Leaving a clammy,
Hot aftermath.
Love
THE GREAT PRETENDER
Tonight I must pretend you don't matter.
Tonight I must momentarily dismiss all these torturous thoughts
