"I think that if I ever have kids, and they are upset, I won't tell them people are starving in China or anything like that because it won't change the fact that they were upset. And even if someone has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have. Good and bad."
- The Perks of Being a Wallflower, by Stephen Chbosky


My heart beats with a longing,
Of what I do not know.
A time long passed.
A day now gone.
A voice not heard.
A gentle touch
Of your shoulder against mine,
As we sat side by side
Talking through the night.

Thank you. That's the feel I was going for, and it's what I was feeling; that kind of gentle sadness. I'm glad you like it.

I thought of a soft feather and a gentle voice when I first read this. It's beautiful. Moments of inspiration.... I haven't written for a while.... *sighs*
