Friends. Lovers. Strangers.
Dear Diary, All I did was ask him how he was doing. All he had to do was answer the question. That's it! Just answer the question! But nooo, he does what he always does. He turned the question back on me. That’s when I went silent. I didn’t plan to shut down. But lately, everything he does gets under my skin. It wasn’t always like this. We used to laugh.

A Simple Little Rhyme
Dear Diary, Erato, one of the goddess of poetry who inspires love, paid me a visit: I woke up this morning with you on my mind A song in my heart and this simple little rhyme I closed my eyes and tried to rewind time Time, rewind...Rewind, Time. Back to last night when we were together We escaped to “our world” where no one else mattered We laughed, we kissed, we held each other tight We giggled, we talked, we mmmmm Yeah…that was nice But there’s no need to rewind time Our lo
