Back on Track.. Well.. Kinda of…

Thank you for continuing to patronize this site in my absence. In the last two weeks, I have ended a long term relationship and moved into a place of my own again.  It was a hard step to make, but a necessary one. Sometimes even when you love someone it isn't meant to be a …

Heart Aches…..

My heart aches and twists when we are apart, a lover's dilemma and the heart's lament, The distance between us an artificial wall, called circumstance... placing you here and me there and someone else in your bed.

A Heart At Half-Mast

In 1994, I was a scared, shy and wholly naive girl when I entered VA Tech as a freshman.  My parents dropped me off and then quickly departed to make the five hour journey home.  My years wandering through the castle like buildings would be spend learning more than just academics.  I grew into a …
