"You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming? That's where I will always love you. That's where I'll be waiting." - J.M.B.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure." - J.K.R.


I don't understand...
  why the trees seem to sigh
  why the flames seems so strong
  why the river must cry
  why the air sings it's joyful song

    But most of all...
      why money controls the world
      why the universe is so vast
      why love over time seems to pearl
      why we flee our past

What I understand most of all is...
  why the wind blows
  why the stars shine
  why the grass grows
  why the birds fly
        why the moon rises and falls
        why we stand and answer the call
