“Sure, I can talk like you, but I choose not to, It's like an art, you know? Picasso had to prove to the world he could paint the right way, before he goes putting both eyes on the side of a face... See if you paint wrong because that's the best you can do, you just a chump. But you do it because you want to? Then you're an artist...You can take that to the grave and dig it up when you need it.”
― Neal Shusterman, Unwind


You are the fairest of them all
But by and by I watch you fall
Into the depths of your despair
Your seasons change without a care

The person that I loved is gone
And in her place she left a pawn
For me to mold as I desire
I burn it in the funeral pyre

She has no spark to use for light
Through my dark and dreary nights
I miss the girl that I once knew
I miss the one whose love was true

No matter what I choose to do
There’s simply no replacing you.

I'm usually a free verse kinda girl, but I've been in a rhyme-y mood lately. Sorry if that takes away the depth for you.
