silent thoughts at 2:30 am

'i want so badly to touch
your face with my
trembling hands...
and
there are so many things
muddled up in my head
that are begging

Saturday July 7th 2007 -  The day I arrived here - beautiful Victoria BC Canada. It is crazy to think that was a  decade ago - just shy of 24 years old - not having a clue what was coming, only that I needed a change.
