About this blog

In Toronto, there is a nightly news magazine called T.O. Night aimed at the commuter crowd. One of the
features that it contains is a section called Shout Out where readers can send a short message, rant, note...
to someone, or to anyone...

I started sending Shout Outs to the woman that I am in love with. Not all of them are published in
T.O. Night - and once the magazine is tossed, so too is the shout out...

Here are most of the shout outs that I have submitted - and some of my other writings to
The Lady on the Train...

A Tentative Kiss...

Angel,
 
I don't know what it was like for you... I don't know if you felt any rush of blood or tingle of skin. I don't know if there was a desire to linger or the urge to flee.

I wanted to take your hand and entwine your fingers in mine - feel their softness and strength...

I wanted to pull you close and hold you tight to breath you in. I wanted to kiss you and let everything else disappear. ..

For me, within that kiss, I felt those feelings rise. Within the span of that tentative and awkward kiss, I felt my guard drop like a stone and hope and wonder flood in.

In that moment I wanted to be transported. I wanted time to let the kiss change - relax deepen...I wanted to be able to look into your eyes and search your face and brush my lips across your smooth cheeks. I wanted to drink you in and let time stop. I wanted familiar magic and miracles to swirl around us and lift us up.

I wanted to never let you go...

Just me.
