The Ten-Year Order
I have flashbacks of her in a black dress, as if she attended her own funeral. Perhaps it’s because she lived in constant scarcity, like she was always one step away from starvation. Short on humor, minimal in nonsense, tight-reined for schedules and speech and spending. Stoic as a Viking and rigid as a brick. Not failure but low aim was crime, and nothing I did was ever good enough for Ma.

A slice of dark chocolate cake
“If I can recall the last time I felt loved or happy…” “I would say, when I first met him.” I told my psychiatrist therapist. She writes down everything that I’m saying but she never writes what she says. Ms. Ahlmell was her madam name before she got married one year ago.

Love Yourz
On my way down, I caught another 3:33 on the phone. I was on my way towards the love of my own life. The number had been trailing me like a puppy seeking shelter in the middle of the night. Just two lost souls showing up in each other's life- fated, searching for a home with other souls. Finding love in new places, getting lost in seemingly familiar faces. I thought you were meant for me - almost fully realized, but most definitely premeditated. I had looked it up before; I still managed to forget what it meant, and what it was supposed to mean for me during times like this. Anxiety was a slow killer- a light blocker. It was 3:33 AM when I popped up, straight out another dream with you still fresh in my eyes. I didn't have to see your face to feel you round me. The energy introduced itself, and somehow quietly, became my favorite. It lingered in the air like the sweat of dancing, jumbled in with hints of weed smoke, and the sweetness of some hard-hitting waffle house pancakes. We were like honey with a side of tobacco. Almost alright. And perhaps, not as bad as we feared.

You Don't Know Her
Her favorite song is "Into the Mystic" by Van Morrison. She loves the Beatles, U2, Ed Sheeran, Mozart and Bach. Her favorite movie is "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty." Her favorite book is "A Memorable Feast" by Ernest Hemingway. Her heroes include Brene Brown, Michelle Obama, Bill Gates and Hemingway. You already know all this, but you still don't know her.

Forced Adulthood
When I was a child I always wanted to be a grown up. It seemed more fun than being a child; there were so many adventures that my cousins, and older sister were allowed to partake in that I wasn’t. My sisters to me were something of legend anyway since they left the house so early, but I was told of their glory days by my parents as if they still lived with us. They were allowed to go out and stay out until the crack of dawn, and come home with metal in their skin with seemingly no punishment. To me, it was all I ever hoped for in the future. To be able to do anything I wanted without having a consequence immediately follow was all I could dream about as a child.

My Chocolate Barbie
The average American prefers either chocolate or vanilla, I love both. My mom would get so frustrated when I would take forever trying to decide while the line grew longer at our local Tasty Freeze. They’re both silky smooth in texture and each provides a taste that’s orgasmic to the senses. I would lick and suck every drop out of each cone.

My world stopped
I am a diabetic and for me, I have to watch what I eat. But this day I was willing to chance it. I mean what would you do if this wonderfully handsome man had lit candles and spend all day in the kitchen trying to make the day a wonderful moment to remember.

Gift or Curse
Just as she arrived home from a well deserved mini-vacation, Vee stumbled upon an unmarked package left on her front porch. “What the heck could this be?” She mumbled to herself. She immediately called out to her fiancé to see if he had been expecting anything in the mail. “Jay!” She yelled. “Did you order something?” He came running because her call was mixed with a sound of worry and concern. “ No Sweetie.” He replied. “What does it say?” She replied, “nothing!” “Absolutely nothing!” “Hmm…” Jay was just as worried as Vee at this point. “What should we do Babe?” “I don’t know Jay.”

Triangle of Two Lovers
Here's the thing...I'm fucked! I have this coworker that I liked (big time past tense) at the beginning of my employment. I'm not really good with attraction signs, but I can say for (almost) sure that we were flirting hard at some point. But you see, there's a thin line between success and failure when you work with the guy 40 hours a week. You CAN'T fuck up. And if you do, it will be ackward for a long time. So, being a reasonable person, I chose not to act on it. So, with time and patience, those feelings went away...At least I thought they did.

An Ex from Hell
I was once married to the devil. Not really but she was evil and controlling. The devil could easily take notes though that’s for sure. We were only dating for about six months before I casually asked her if she wanted to get hitched. I didn’t get on my knees or do anything special. Probably should have though, but I was young, dumb and full of cum as they say.

Scene 11
I often wonder if anyone knows what true love feels like. Is it an idea, a feeling, a place, or even a certain type of person? What makes someone fall in love? In my experience, I have noticed "true love" for me is brain chemistry. It's the emotional level of understanding who someone is. When I have felt love the strongest, it was always with people who wanted to understand how to love me. Someone who possessed the willingness because they truly wanted to and in turn I truly loved them.
