Favorite Quote:
Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind and gives it rest, heals the heart and makes it whole, flows from heaven to the soul.

Smile on my face
Shattered hope

Cry
Love lingers

Life in my eyes
Blood on my fingers

Smile
Pain lingers

Slipping away
Peace in my heart

Laugh
Life lingers

Bright light
Breath of life

Failed attempt
Hope lingers

This poem does not convey my feelings, but I'm very close to some people who do feel like this. I just want people to understand the pain people feel, and that there is hope.
