There's a poem inside me screaming to be born.

This is a project I started several months ago. I wonder how long I should keep at it? I've written over 70 sections so far and am just starting the third year of college. I'll . . . more

#6 The First Few Weeks

#8 First Breakup with Rachel
It took me a couple days to decide what to do. I knew I had to tell Rachel and break up with her. Every day I spent with Marilyn made that more apparent. . . . more

#3 It Started This Way
