Prologue
to whatever comes next
first story of the year... what will it be?
writing stories, hoping to make a change
to share my passion, to motivate
praying to succeed
so this dream doesn't end
I cannot afford to fail
I don't have a choice
I've got to create
they say 'do it for the story'
the drama and the pain
the love will come one day
or maybe it won't
I almost forgot how it felt
the way you loved me
the way you cared
the way you wanted and needed
you missed the moment I left
first story of the year... what will it be?
hopes and dreams
adventures and friends
love and disdain
take me far away
even when I promised to stay
I don't think I want to pretend
to be reasonable or to care
I think... it's time to embrace
the insanity that brought me here

Sunsetting Pride 2024
Happy Pride! As Pride Month 2024 begins to sunset, I want to congratulate every individual who has become brave enough to take control of their life and live as their authentic, beautiful self. This is a month when it highlights those accomplishments. From acceptance within families and friends to acknowledgement in the political arena. Starting with Stonewall (and events prior) leading to the Supreme court ruling for same-sex marriages. We are here, we are queer, and we should never live in fear.
