VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

Show your support by donating any amount. (Note: We are still technically a for-profit company, so your contribution is not tax-deductible.) PayPal Acct: Feedback:

He follows half a step behind.
Within the difference of a heartbeat,
he superimposes your face.

Much younger than I realized,
he peers half askance from your eyes
to doubt all he remembers of me.

I should be eighteen and childless,
lithe and burned by too many days
in the sun we chased together.

If I had seen an onslaught coming,
I should have held him tight in one hand
and our time at bay in the other.
