Favorite Quote:
fill the paper with the breathings of your heart.


pencil meet paper,
paper meet pencil.
now make words
out of this carbon and lead.
and from those words you'll make music,
and from that music a thread.
you will take that thread and put it through a needle,
take that needle and stitch up
the holes caused by
the agony, the pain of not belonging,
truly belonging,
to anyone.
and when the masses see your beautiful stitches,
they will gaze in wonder.
not recognizing the pain
that had to come
before beauty,
true beauty,
had to be made.
