this is a love poem I wrote. hell, it's the only love poem I've ever written. it was written for Jennifer, the only girl I've ever let in.

puerto rico.

sun sets in your eyes,

and I can see them shine-

but I'd need a rowboat

to get to you.

I had always been a solitary child to begin with. An only child, shy, a bit strange I suppose. My few interactions with other children my age were usually with my cousins, but that was rare. I've always felt alone. I've always been alone. We all are, really. I suppose that day I stopped missing my mom when she left, I sort of lost that link with humanity that makes me really care about someone's presence or absence.
