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…

Blood Burning

queens snorted and screamed

Naïve Boy

I always believed life would be fair

Tearful Eyes

dulled my mind and left my soul despaired

When Blood Calls to the Moon

I strutted in the presence of Death

Lipstick Boy

resisted your masculine pressure

Heterovert

your slur—my ceaseless derogation

I Exist

to be rescued from this icy place

Ti Amo

a rush of warmth as I remembered

On This Day

the mob’s cheers and chants battered my ears

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