Hush, Sorrow – By GatesRhiannon
Hush, Sorrow Feeling rather useless at the moment, she watched as her daughter wove her way through the late lunch crowd. Kayla had too much talent to be tending bar and serving up chowder. With her customary kind heart and predictable Brady stubbornness though, she’d insisted on helping. Oh sure, she’d called it an early …
Human After All – By Elsie
I. Overture I’m still not quite sure how it happened, when I think back on it. Ava was showing me the view from atop her new apartment, and suddenly we are together, our bodies pressed close. She was warm and willing and showing me the type of attention and acceptance I’d secretly been craving. So …

I Just Want You – By Val
There are no unlockable doors There are no unwinable wars There are no unrightable wrongs Or unsingable songs "Damnit I can't deal with that right now... I've got a dinner date with my wife! And as much as I've been working lately, I am not about to disappoint her," John demanded as he …
I Remember – By Npmr
I watch her as she paces across the room, her hands in constant motion as if in their small way, expressing what she is unable to say. At least say to me. Since we asked her to help the woman Bo loves, I could see her slipping away from me and yet, while …
I Want You Back – By Karoline
I remember tussled hair and sweat pants. Eye lashes without make up and cheeks with natural blush. I remember lazy Sundays and midnight walks. Goodnight kisses and joint good morning showers.
