Favorite Quote:
Courage is not the absence of fear but the judgment that something is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever but the cautious might not live at all. -Meg Cabot
And
Your wounds and your imperfections are your beauty.


The lighting sets the scene

The gleam in his eyes is all I see

Is it the light or the bright shining night?

I'm holding back with all my might

How can one be so perfect?

Hurt as he smiles at her name

To the thoughts, I try to tame

Scream with utmost desire

Now, I'm getting dire

This is your chance, speak

As I start to feel weak

I utter in a small voice

He leans in a way so poise

"For you, I'd risk it all"

"For you, my heart did fall."

His lips curl into a smile 

As we stood there for a while

Then he finally spoke

I finally awoke 

"When I missed you I looked at the moon"

Adrift I ask, as a smile starts to unmask

"Bright, beautiful and out of reach..."
