&quot;You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you.---Ray Bradbury<br /> &quot;People put up walls, not to keep others out, but to see who cares enough to break them down.&quot;<br /> &quot;Everything happens for a reason.&quot;

Hold me now.
Before it's too late.
Before the sun sets
over the snowcapped mountain
peaks.

Hold me now.
Before the world can pull us apart.
Before everything begins to hurt like daggers to the heart.

Hold me here.
And I promise
I will never run
away from your love.

Hold me forever.
Because in your arms
I will stay, always.

Just promise
you will hold me.

Through it all.
