Somewhere there are secrets.
They hide like children
giggling behind closed doors
hoping to be discovered.
They hide for a purpose;
a game of counting moments in the dark
contemplating the successes
of one closet over the other.
Secrets hide,
not out of fear,
but out of fun;
dark shadows whispering within the linens.
I am the best thing you've never heard of.
I hold a Bachelor's in English, History and Secondary Education, and a Master's in English: Creative Writing, though my appearance belies intelligence.
My goal in life is to write and to be read. It's a modest stretch by most imaginations.
To most I'm amazing.
It all depends on your definition of literary merit.
