Favorite Quote:
"Keep your face always towards the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you." -Walt Whitman


finders keepers
if you find her
can you keep her?

losers weepers
you'll wish you were
a heavier sleeper.

scratched records
and old torn sneakers
everything you own
will reek of her.

restless writers
and excessive readers
you'll cut yourself open
just to find you bleed her.

darkened features
lightened mind
she's the song
whose lyrics you'll spend
your life trying to find.
