Favorite Quote:
People want to know why I do this, why I write such gross stuff. I like to tell them I have the heart of a small boy... and I keep it in a jar on my desk. <br /> -Stephen King :P<br /> The trust of the innocent is the liar&#039;s most useful tool. <br /> -Stephen King<br /> Now that we&#039;re here, <br /> It&#039;s so far away <br /> All the struggle we thought was in vain <br /> All the mistakes, <br /> One life contained <br /> They all finally start to go away <br /> Now that we&#039;re here its so far away <br /> And I feel like I can face the day <br /> I can forgive and I&rsquo;m not ashamed to be the person that I am today

I look down at my slender hands,
Hands that have held so many hearts,
And clenched fist that have crushed them,
I look down at my slender hands with disgust,
I look at my peach lips,
Lips that have spoken lies,
Lips that have faked many smiles,
I look at my peach lips with disappointment,
I stare into my stormy eyes,
Eyes that see past looks,
Eyes that can’t lie like my smile,
I stare into my stormy eyes with understanding,
I try to find myself inside my head,
My mind filled with depressing thoughts,
My mind; hopelessly confused,
I try to do what I think is right.
