She walked past me last night. I could see it in her eyes. The little girl I used to be.

Secrets. Her eyes held secrets. Things she could admit to no one, least of all herself. (more…)

Not now. Not again.

I thought this pain was in my rear view mirror… but suddenly it’s crashed through the windshield.

That’s agony. It will sneak up on you. Then it will stop you in your tracks.

Been there? (more…)

Dear Halee,

How come I never see anything about how to stop masturbation? Is it not bad? And what is it, anyway?
