Made in the Milky Way
You are the nearest I will ever come to seeing space up close.
You are the nearest I will ever comeTo seeing space up close.
Your eyes remind me of galaxies,Their twinkle the stars that fill them Made of light and wonderThat shine with the promise that‘Everything will be okay.’
Your soul reminds me of stardust,Floating free in the infinite spaceThat is your being,Wearing the midnight moonAnd nothing else.
I seek you out.
I will always seek you outTo whisper“I love you”Into the infinity of the universe.
But I don’t know why.Because I’ll never understandHow something so damaged,So distant,So unattainable,Could be so breathtakingly beautiful.

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
