Favorite Quote:
"I believe in God, but not as one thing, not as an old man in the sky. I believe that what people call God is something in all of us. I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong." ~John Lennon

"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?" ~John Lennon

"When you're drowning, you don't say 'I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,' you just scream." ~John Lennon


The girl on the corner
The one without a smile
The one suffering though hell
Without hoping for paradise
The one crying to sleep
And waking without hope
The one hiding from words
And dashing looks
The one reading books
While creating her on world
Cause this one is simply not enough
The one wishing death
Not on others but her own
Well that girl is me
Or use to be
That girl woke up
And started to live
She found what she was missing
A new world ahead
She may still cry to sleep
And live in her head
But she is out of the corner
She once called her home
And is smiling everyday
And ignoring before.
