"I long for you." Those four words took her breath away. Simple, but she knew that those words were exactly how she felt about him. Smiling, she wrote back, "Sweetheart, the feeling is mutual." She read it over and hit send. Closing her laptop, she leaned her head back and closed her eyes. She was thinking about their last time together, which was right bef...
1 They were old friends, from working together 20 years ago, and had shared a lot of life but in a still casual way. Over the years, each of them had changed careers and jobs, divorced and remarried, and seen children grow up. It had been years since they met, although they had emailed and kept in touch online. Her husband had died a few years back, he had...
Angel & Melanie were best friends growing up. They did everything together. That's what she told him. He had been dating Angel for a few months now, and they were getting pretty serious. When she said that she wanted him to meet her friend Melanie, he was looking forward to it. He had heard all sorts of stories about the two of them. Grade school antics, dan...
Imagine! Can you imagine not to know? Not to know what? Not to know that it is sex which makes a woman pregnant! Wouldn't that be paradise? Why would anyone think bad about another person enjoying sex and having sex as often as he or she likes and with whomever and how ever many partners he or she likes? Have you ever wondered about this? A couple, lets s...
I saw her everywhere. The little space at the base of her chin, where face becomes neck, the soft curve of her skin glowing in the gentle moonlight of a quiet evening. Maybe someone would have her eyes, that same distinct brown like the golden amber of a well aged liquor. There were pieces of her in ever face that I looked upon, she was in my world completel...
========== Another slow day in Putnam and Sheriff Jacob Creech sat at the house behind the Sheriff's Office he's lived in for decades now. This house has been good to him, he was a young man here - Sarah lived here with him before the Lord took her home 8 years ago. He raised Elaine here, she moved out and had kids on her own. At this point he's not sure an...

Lisa was my wife, friend, lover for four too short years. Dead two and a half times the length of our marriage, she lies under an ancient oak tree's sprawling canopy in Overland Park, a relatively new, yet unfilled cemetery on the north side of the small berg I live in. On this May 18th, as I do every May 18th, I called on Lisa, the mother of our born dead...
I was walking down the dimly lit street, confident in my ability to take care of myself if trouble should come looking for me. I know i was asking for it as much as it was looking for me. I smile to myself and flip my long blond hair over my delicate shoulders. The little black dress, chosen by my friend Sarah, hugged my soft rounded curves lovingly, like a...
Driving a taxi is no way to make a living, but it's a nice way to pick up a few bucks on the weekends. And when business is good, it's almost worth the effort of hauling drunks out of your back seat, and depositing them on their front porches. I'd cleared over a hundred and fifty (that cold October night), and only had to physically remove one near-comatose...
