Favorite Quote:
"'At a certain part in your life. Probably when too much of it has gone by. You will open your eyes and see yourself for who you are. Especially for everything that made you so different from all the awful normals. And you will say to yourself, "But I am this person." And in that statement, that correction, there will be a kind of love.' - Phoebe In Wonderland

Feeling your hand entwined with mine

my nails pierce my skin

When I open there is nothing to find

but the spot it never lied in

The challenge to establish reality from dream

becomes harder everyday

downward falls my self esteem

because you'll never look my way
