We had everything:

a life, a family, love, and desire.

We started low,

but our hearts made us go higher.

Birds of a feather,

as they say, they flock together.

You sadly left first,

unexpectedly, leaving my soul bare.

But I am in peace,

my eternal Valentine, I'm almost there.

Alex Torres

Started writing short stories back in 1988 at work, when I had an empty page to fill for the employee's internal magazine. Taking the pen again after a 30 year-long hiatus, exploring where it takes me this time.
