I forget people exist. Not always, but a lot. I can’t tell anyone. I definitely can’t tell the people I love. They would find me callous and cold. I've heard that a lot over the years. They would assume they understand, but they would only see the surface and not the substance underneath. They wouldn't look at the pain it causes me to acknowledge this.

Growing up, leftover choices were illusions that fell on either side of the spectrum. Some of us hate to revisit what we had just yesterday. The taste still lingers on […]
I haven’t written in a while. I’ve thought about it every day, though: the thing that happened, the comment he made, the smile she shared. I’ve thought about writing and […]
My kids don’t like talking about the fact that one day I’m going to die. I mean why would they? Nobody wants to talk about death. We don’t want to […]
