The Bitter Taste Of Reality & Heartache
4/10/2022. 9:14 pm. Stoughton, Ma. Five months have passed since I last saw you and these wounds are still so fresh. I’ve been writing nonstop. Sobbing nonstop. I’ve created palaces from paragraphs, drowning it’s people with my tears on your behalf. I’ve exhaled each letter of your name, scouring them from my tongue, hoping the…
How the mighty have fallen
2.4.2022. 8:03 pm. Brockton, Ma. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.. A life once filled with sex, kisses, and you can only imagine what other pleasure; now only a life of desperation. Constant crying for the attention of another. To have it all one second just to have it torn to pieces by the very…
An Open Window
12.15.21. 3:50am, Brockton, Ma. I lay in bed with my window wide open, letting winter’s breeze fill my room in the same manner she once filled my heart. Only now my heart is as cold as this room.

My Dear Innocence
Years have passed since I last considered myself “innocent.” Believe it or not, it took me until I turned 25 or so, to start doubting in the authenticity of “love.” I even began to doubt the true intentions of those whom I once considered my loves, my friends, my family, etc. From facing betrayals of…
The Absolution Of The Unworthy: An Excerpt
How does one acknowledge if love is in their destiny? The mystery behind true love is never easily acquired, which in turn creates a quixotic vision for those who are unwilling to learn. Love is an art that must be passed on to worthy lovers and to those who are worthy of being loved. For…
I Didn’t Want To Fall In Love…
As a writer, I tend to reread my work and critique the content of a once less mature mind. The thing is, I’m not the same person I was last year, last month, or even last week. Just like anyone who values self-improvement and strives to become a better version of themselves, I try to…
So I Met This Girl…
I used to think that love was finite. Once you fall in love, that’s it. But no, that’s a common misconception. Although I didn’t realize that the world is filled with women who would feel lucky to have me, I didn’t care enough to think about anyone else. I was in a deep love that…
Valentine’s Day, And Being Single
Question: How will you be spending your Valentine’s Day? Some will go out to dinner with their partner, maybe grab some flowers and chocolates and if they’re truly in love then they’ll probably get some. I mean what else is the day for? A reason to show our girls and guys that we love them?…
An Excerpt From Chapter 1
So like I said earlier, I would be posting certain excerpts from what I currently have written for my book so that any interested readers could decide for themselves if this variation of a niche is for them. Love is such a complex topic and it isn’t always sunshine and daisies. It can be quite…
