“Have you ever BEEN on a first date before?” she asked.
Goodbye
I turned to look at you as you looked back at me. With tears long gone, life went on and the memories will always be.
Thy Silence

Intervention
Anger and shame welled up inside Henry’s addled brain as he waited for the first of his accusers to start listing the awful things he’d done to them.

In Love with Yesteryear
“Please don’t break up with me,” Gary begged with big, brown puppy-dog eyes. “I love you.”
