&ldquo;Whatever you are physically...male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy--all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a warrior. All those other things, they are the glass that contains the lamp, but you are the light inside.&rdquo; <br /> ― Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel

I wrote about so many things.

I wrote about your symmetry.
I wrote about how iridescent you were to me.
I wrote about the music you held so dearly to your heart.
I wrote about my soul's longing for you.

I wrote about so many things.


Now,
I wish I were capable
of erasing
every written word.
