Music, art and sleep. My real real-life friends, laughter, independence (it's a cancer and a cure) and feelings of accomplishment.

Heroes
St. Matthew’s Day -+-
Never again will I pass through the fall
Ignorant of your scent amid the dying leaves.
For fifteen years I have watched the nights
For signs of your return – nights as cold and
Icy as the eyes that once seduced me.
Reminded of your hands by barren trees –
Gaunt wet fingers opened to the sky –
Wanting to capture every hint of you, I
Escape to darkened woods to breathe your name.
Have you saved the letters that we once wrote,
Tied up in secret languages of red and gold?
Tapers char the ones that I have kept,
As smells of rose petals, cigarettes, and Aquanet
Merge with the passion of lovers in the fading smoke.
(C) 2005 from my first female lover
