Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Betrayal: 36 of 382

Yes this is personal and yes it is true. It is my experience that I am sharing with you. We were so close like sisters people said. Closer than that we were, it was over your head. A bond that sparked instantaneously much like new romance. Of course those that insinuated such did not follow the dance. Give give, take take, i...

I just finished reading Heavier than Heaven, by Cross, A biography of Curt Cobain. True to its title it was by all means Heavy.

Ode to a dear friend. You're like the brother I never had, the friend I have always needed. My truth when I may need a jolt of reality, something not always heeded. Your honesty is never lost on me.

Entertainment > TV Show Reviews Television show reviews: House M.D.: 6 of 7

House M.D. has captured my loyalty as very few shows have in the past. I am an avid viewer of Law and Order and both it's offshoots, and had not found a show to rival them for my attention.
