Biography

I'm a high school English teacher, a wife, a mother, and occasionally just me. I enjoy traveling and painting and trying to understand the world.

Samples

I sigh and pine and waste away, But for all my love he will not stay True to the promise he made to me. I beg and plea but it cannot be. He wraps me up in his arms. How many others has he coaxed with these charms? How many women were whispered sweet words? One? Five? Shall they gather in herds? There's a tightness in my chest There's a numbness in my soul There's a gleam that vanished from my eye Never again to hold So where so we go from here? Do we adhere to fair is fair? Because I've seen the world and looked about There are none that can compare! You own me so completely I could never go astray So when you go to leave my bed I beg you, please, to stay.
