I enjoy writing because it makes everything so clear to me. I have had no training on it however I have been doing it for years. Seeing what I can create in my mind and producing it makes for the most incredible feeling. Like creating my very own dream.

I live in the south where things are slow and afternoons are lazy. Where the people next door actually know who you are. Where things are simple.

The photo that I have uploaded is a picture from the American- Florence Military cemetery in Florence Italy. I was a creek and I thought it to be so amazingly breathe-taking.

I wish that I could go back just 5 years. Just long enough to spend some time with her. Debra was my mother, all 19 years of my life to that point. Seasons came and went, years passed and days crept. Having an ill parent was a burden to me and one that I regret to this day. I can remember the sound of her voice calling me from rooms away and secretly hoping that the voice would quiet and leave me to myself. Wanting to just be left alone in my room as most teenagers do. Alone with my music and...

The feel of a rifle. The smell of CS gas as it burns your skin. The sound of a drill sergeant yelling at you to do one more sit-up, one more push-up, one more mile. Running so long that your legs are numb and all you can think of is finishing. Remember bootcamp and the first sight of drill sergeants ready to break you down and build you up. Not knowing what was going to happen and were you going to be. When I close my eyes, I see the rushing of privates. Almost as if they are trying to run fr...

I never thought in my wildest dream that I would ever see you again. I never thought I would hear your voice again. I never realized that our paths were meant to cross again. One lucky night, I stumbled upon your name. Finding you after so many years shook my world. Emotions and thoughts ran through my mind and took me back to memories and a place in time when I had simple thoughts and emotions. Back to a time when we had the innocence of children. Back to the moment when you gave me my first...
