Angst

You told me that I write with 'angst'.  I respond, telling you that I write with words, and leave it to you to add the angst.

Lov’d Him

I’m not sure if I ever told him that I loved him. I have tried so many times to remember if I did. Not knowing, makes me even sadder. I did love him, and I loved him a great deal. But when you know your love will destroy their dreams, you remain silent. I was accused …
