The First Whisper

a place where the silence softens…

Welcome to the quiet you have carried for so long.
This is where the silence breaks…not with a scream,
but with the soft, deliberate tremble of truth.


These poems explore and express love, loss, abuse, memory, and the human experience. Every poem here is a whisper you weren’t allowed to speak…until now.

…and ends with your first whisper.

Whispers that break the silence…

Ti Amo

a rush of warmth as I remembered

Mental Agony

my body stood naked and exposed

Naïve Boy

I always believed life would be fair

Lipstick Boy

resisted your masculine pressure

Sparkling Emerald Eyes

your arms, like carved oak, protected me

When Blood Calls to the Moon

I strutted in the presence of Death

Tearful Eyes

dulled my mind and left my soul despaired

Blood Burning

queens snorted and screamed

“We are the ghosts we were told to silence.”
