The Original Breadcrumb. Thanks, Dad!
I was sitting in my therapist’s office, and we were doing our usual dance. I was basically begging her for some sort of answer to the questions: Why am I still with this person? Why can’t I quit him? Tell me what to do, just tell me exactly how to walk away…for good. But therapists…

One Year Later
You found me dressed in black. Hiding way up at the back. Life had broken my heart into pieces. You took my hand in yours. You started breaking down my walls. And you covered my heart in kisses. I thought life had passed me by. Missed my tears, ignored my cries. Life had broken my…

The Kid I Never Knew I Wanted
I never wanted children. Growing up, I never fantasized about future kids because I wouldn’t have them. Kids, to me, were messy and sticky, not funny, and so annoying.
