Favorite Quote:
I have too many


Time slips by like the light that drifts from the sky

My needs are hidden away beneath these trees

I am small without death or life

My knowledge may wax and never wane

I bask in the rain, snow or shine

The starlit night is dim and free of the sharp and painfilled stings

that life brings

My temperature changes with the sky

Our souls our one, the Earth and I

Hidden am I from your world for my protection

I make no loved connections

I am stable but not unmovable

I am here and here I am here to stay

I am a spirit full of memories

But I am far far away

Never will I see the light of day

Beyond this prison of my own making

A beauty hidden, in a shell of fear and neglect

This is what I am

A spirit trapped in a prison that I have made 

No new escaping, no new day

This is what I have made

A monster created from my mistakings and deadly pains

Pains and never endings 

I will stay as part of the role I play
