..."You have to lie to tell the truth" - Anonymous

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." 1 Corinthians 13


"Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being "in love" which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two." -St. Augustine

"I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity." -Edgar Allan Poe

"Girls fall in love with what they hear, Boys fall in love with what they see. Thats why, Girls wear makeup, and Boys lie." - Anonymous

"Even if happiness forgets you a little bit, never completely forget about it." - Jacques Prévert

"Most people would rather be certain they're miserable, than risk being happy." - Robert Anthony


No sir, I sure don't need a prince
Please walk on with your tin foil
Or ride away on that black stallion spray painted white
You missed a spot

I can't read minds
but I can tell what's on yours
& it's far from treating me like royalty
Me? The type of girl who wants a fairytale?
Oh no, too predictable & sappy
Sorry to burst your bubble

This castle I'm waiting in,
It's waiting, but not for you
Oh, you'll give me the world, and much more?
Please, I've heard it all before.

You're the type of guy,
Who doesn't see what he has until she leaves
I'll give you the chance to watch me go,
Not the gift of having, holding me
Too good for you, gum drop

I believe in magic, and beauty
None of which you'll present me
That face is pretty, but you're ugly inside
When I snap my fingers they'll take you away
Don't you love my Lack of confidence
Baby I can do so much better than you

Stilts & Pedestals?
They don't make you any taller
You are still you Sweetie
Just now you look stupider than ever

You won't be making a fool out of me
I will not be the puppet and you the puppeteer
Little girl games? I will not participate
Count me out, But I have a proposal for you,
Go play hide & seek, by yourself
Because no one wants to find you
