I love you because you’re still sticking around…

2017… much like 2016, was full of surprises, adventures and some learning experiences. 2017 I was sure I had met the man I was supposed to be with. Less than 2 months into 2017, he was gone. It taught me … Continue reading

I love you because you’re old…

As I get older I begin to realize… well… that I’m getting older. I also am figuring out things that I wish I knew when I was younger and could have told myself 20 years ago… The person you see … Continue reading

I love you just because you let me…

I had just exited an abusive relationship. One that I would have panic attacks while diving on the highway sometimes when I was left with nothing but my thoughts, and memories. Men were the enemy, I thought I would never … Continue reading

I love you and I’m not dead…

I love you because you weren’t the one…

It hurts. Took longer this time than the last time to feel it. I thought I was handling things ok, but it hurts. I faced one of the biggest battles I’ve ever had, you, by my side. There was rough, … Continue reading

I love you because you said ‘no’….
