For The Quiet
For The Quiet - Coming November 2020 This website is very much like my journal and I tend to share things here that I may not share with just anyone. There is something comforting and protective in sitting behind the screen of a laptop and talking about the things in my life that feel like [...]
And Here We Are
How many times have I ended a thought with And here we are I miss you today I said your whole name out loud for the first time in nearly a year and it hurt so bad. I sat for a long time, crying, feeling sorry for me, and for you No one will ever [...]
Dear Briar
My Dearest Briar, I send you happiest wishes for this new year. Being here, without you, has been difficult. Far more difficult than I could have ever imagined. It is in this - emptiness - that I have had the time to reflect. To make peace. To find strength. But there is nothing here. Nothing [...]

I would imagine if it does, the most beautiful gardens would bloom. Here, without you, the grey skies darken and a [...]
Dear Briar
Dear Briar, I write you today because I now know what needs to be done and I know that means the only way I will ever talk to you is by letter. Here, in words, on paper, we can be authentic. Ourselves. We can be together. Out there, well, there can be no we. No [...]
Dear Briar
