My breath studded with ice
a seemingly endless expanse of white
and a blue glow surrounding me
sheer white glass stands around
no sound escapes the lips of this world
and something bigger is felt
the sea is barley seen in the distance, but it begins to creep, slowly, carefully towards the middle
the walls of glass begin to sink
the sound of cracking ice begins
and the chill falls further and further away
white dirties to brown
and suddenly
there is only tears for this land

"Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself."

this is really good!!!
