Synopsis

This is a special book about special people.  People who have loved me, and whom I have loved.  People who have brought me joy beyond measure, and sometimes incredible pain.  People I have hurt, sometimes more than I can bear to think about.  People who have hurt me, sometimes more than they know.  Yet each of their gifts has been precious, each moment treasured, each face, each smile, each victory, each defeat woven into the fiber of my being.  In retrospect, all of it is beautiful, because we cared so much.  In essence, this book covers fifteen years of my life, and a handful of precious people who mean, and have meant everything to me.  This book is written for them.

With much love, d.s.

About this title

From the Publisher:

font size=+1>Silence
Your silence hurts,
it weighs heavily,
dammit,
I cared so bloody much,
I hurt, I gave,
I cried,
I wanted,
needed,
hoped,
the scope
of it all
still overwhelms me
as I paint portraits
in the sky
seeing you
in my mind's eye
painting in
your presence
for a thousand years
to come,
wanting, wishing,
hoping,
seeing,
yet frightened
that
you'll
fade away...
and then
trembling,
I realize
once more...
there was no call
from you
today.
