Everything melts someday.
There is no if, instead, or may.
Nothing is frozen forever,
that happens absolutely never.
Sometimes it is warmed for the best,
but sometimes it’s heated to it’s hottest.
The heat does not feel very nice,
I prefer the ice.

Favorite Quote:
&quot;I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can and as wholly as I can, using for my defense the only arms I allow myself to use -- silence, exile, and cunning.&rdquo;<br /> -James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
