&quot;Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you&#039;re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn&#039;t love you anymore.&quot;<br /> &mdash; Lady Gaga

underground lost
in mindless oblivion
waiting to be awakened
from my own personal hell
looking for a spark
to ignite my shell
of my wintry desolation
a burst of light
awakes my senses
washing me in hope
brightening my life
as I walk into
the sunlight
feeling life buzz
under my fingertips
a tremble of the Earth
arrives under my feet
a love for my strings
jostles my hearts beating
I'm truly home
