Its funny how I began this journey into writing, because it chose me, I had not a clue that I would become an Author. All it took was for the right person to enter into my life with a poem that was so powerful and strong, that I could not control my thoughts, the words was in my head and I could not stop them, I didn't want to stop them, I found that I had a lot to say, and I felt others thoughts and feelings in my head and I knew I had to put them down and show them that they were not alone. We all have these thoughts in our minds of how we want life to be, our wants our likes and dislikes, heck, we all experience them, but at time we don't know how to express them, so we keep them to ourselves, bottled up with a cork hoping that one day, one day that special someone would come along and pop the cork and say those words that we have held on for so long to hear. My journey has not ended, I am still at the beginning, knowing that one day I too will hear those words that was bottled up inside of me, afraid to say them out loud, afraid of being hurt. I feel it's better to write them down than to say them out loud, because of the feelings not being reciprocated. My stories my poems are just the beginning of a long road with no end, at time the thoughts in my mind becomes the fantasy's of life's illusions and the pretension of my reality and your life. Let my words marinate in your mind and your heart and be not afraid to explore what life has to offer, for it is yours, mine and our destiny. If you think it, feel it, even taste it, so become it, now you must own up to it, for it has now become a reality of what you must do, I did, I thought it, felt it, I became a writer and author, it became my reality and what I had to do and what I will continue to do.

Chapter 1

S arah Smith moved from her mother Lynn and father Malcolm Smith home in Up State New York City, to seek her own adventures’ and to build a new life in a city where she is unknown, so she decided to move to California, the land of sunshine and warm weather and opportunity.

Sarah one day while staring out of her window was thinking to herself, how she was a self motivated, mature petite 28 years of age, young mature lady, light skinned with hazel eyes, the kind of lady any man would love to date, graduated top of her class with a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and Stock Exchange Management, she have money in the bank, not rich, but could hold her own, if need be, she could travel to any place in the world, then a chill came upon her, as sadness touched her soul, it touched so deep, she froze for a second, then memories of the loss of her ex-boyfriend came to mind, in high school there was this guy, Jason Alexander, everyone called him Jay, he had a beautiful smile and a winning personality, tall, dark nice looking guy muscular build, he played football and ran track, he was very athletic and very popular, he was the kind of guy all the girls wanted, even me.

One day as I was walking home from school, unexpectedly out of no where, without warning he walked right up to me and said hi, I almost jumped out of my shoes that I was wearing, my heart skipped a beat the moment he spoke to me, then he introduced himself, I was speechless, he went on, he said he had been eyeing me for a long time and that he had wanted to speak to me, but was to shy, I was still in a state of shock and surprised, I dropped my books, he just smiled as he picked them up, I stood there, frozen, then he asked me if he could walk me home, I got myself together when I heard that and smiled then said yes, Please do. From that day on we were together and my feelings for him grew, he was more than I had asked for and I knew he felt as I did for me.

Jay and I, liked the same things, so it seemed, we both liked going to the movies, walks around the lake and the beach, we would wrap ourselves in a blanket and watch the sunset, on warm days we would go on picnics in the park, how good he made me feel when we laid on the grass, then while looking up at the sky, we would compete on who could make the most figures out of the clouds, after a while, we would both be silent, as we laid there together, hand in hand.

It was a warm sunny day, and I was getting ready to wash my hair, when the phone rang, it was Jason, he sounded very serious, he told me we needed to talk, he said that it had something to do with our future and that it was very important, I told him that it was okay, and that for him to come over, when he got there, he asked if it was okay if they sat on the porch, at first neither one of us spoke, we just set there, then I turned my head to notice Jason staring at me, it was weird because he had the strangest look on his face, one that I had never seen before, then he asked me to promise, that what ever happens, whatever he say, that they would always be together, I stared at him first, the way he was looking at me, just melted my heart, and at that moment, I could not say no to him, he was in my head and heart, so I looked directly into his eyes, with a reassuring look, reached up, put his face into my hands, and with a gentle passionate kiss on his lips, I promised him, he then put his arms around me, and held me so tight, it felt like our heart beats became one, and I knew that he was mine for life.

Jason looked right into my eyes, I could see that there was something very important he needed to tell me, first he turned away, I told him no, tell me, I will try to understand, we can work it out together, then he turned to face me again, he then told me that he had signed up for the military, at that moment my heart dropped, he went on, he said that they made him a good offer, that he could continue his education and get a degree while traveling, also that by joining the military, it would help him fulfill his dreams and build a life for himself and his family, so in saying all that, he decided to sign-up and that when he graduate, he would be leaving right away for duty, at first I thought he was joking because he had a smile on his face, then he asked me not to be mad, that when he finished boot camp, that they would get married and all their dreams of a future would come true, I didn’t know what to say, my heart dropped I didn’t know if I should be happy because he wanted to marry me or sad that he was leaving me right after he graduate from school.

I knew he was the man I wanted to be with for the rest of my life, but I never in my wildest dreams would I have thought we would not be together in his decision regarding us.

I had good dreams of him and I after we graduated, and now, after what he told me, all my dreams were just only that, dreams of my own, but those were my thoughts and not his, I told him that I understood and that I would wait for him.

Two days after we graduated, Jason was gone, he wrote me everyday for 2 years, then, the letters got fewer, after 3 years they stopped. I didn’t know what was happening, I wanted to ask his parents, but I found out they had moved and know one knew of their new address, so I couldn’t ask them about Jason, I didn’t know which way to turn, I figured Jason had found himself someone else and didn’t know how to tell me that he no longer loved me or wanted me in his life, so he stopped all together writing me, I can’t believe that this guy, this man whom promise me that we would to be together, broke my heart, all kinds of thoughts went through my head, being that he was the only man I wanted and now, he doesn’t want to be with me, how could he just fall out of love with me, I asked myself over and over again, how could he do this to me, he knew how I felt about him, with that thought I knew I had to do something before I would go crazy over the situation. I knew I had to move on and try hard to get involved in my classes at college and become someone I could be proud of and stand on my own two feet. I promised myself to move up and move on with my life.

Still having memories and hope of us getting back together, I told myself that I will never love anyone, at lease not like the way I loved Jason, and I then hoped and prayed, that he would write or call me.

Time past, and I knew that it was time for me to leave home and try and forget my past, to make a new life a new start in a city where know one knew me, where I knew I would not run into Jason.

I told my mom and dad how I was feeling and that I was going to move out and try to make it on my own, that I had sent out resumes over the computer, and got an offer, I called them, we talked quit a while, they made me an offer and guess what, I excepted it. In hearing this, at first they didn’t want me to go, but when I explained to them how I needed a change and that I would call and write them every chance I got, and it would be almost as if I was still living with them, and with saying that, they were assured and happy and sad at the same time, then wished me well and to promised them that I would call or come home if anything happened, and that their door was always open, I smiled and hugged and kiss them both.

So now, here I am with these thoughts to myself and thinking of my decision that I made to move to a big city all by myself, no one here, I really could call a friend, still in thought to myself, never would I have dreamed that I would be still all by myself and alone, could this be real, I have longed for all too long for someone to come into my life, someone who I could would, share all my thoughts with, someone to take walks in the park or on the beach with, someone to share special
