Steam rises and fog settles
I wish, instead of beauty,
your smiles felt like nettles.
But no, you care to the point where I’m unsettled
and the top goes to the bottom
and the bottom rises up

I turn the city lights off
and stop thinking about you.

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Try to learn to breathe deeply,<br /> really to taste food when you eat,<br /> and when you sleep, really to sleep.<br /> Try as much as possible to be<br /> wholly alive, with all your might,<br /> and when you laugh, laugh like hell,<br /> and when you get angry, get good<br /> and angry. Try to be alive. You will<br /> be dead soon enough.&quot;<br /> William Saroyan
