"I am a writer. We are the people who stay up past 12 AM finishing a story. We're misunderstood and underpaid. We spend our free time fixing plots. But we bring to life characters and a world society never knew about. I'm a writer and I love it."

Can the fireflies light the night?
And the mosquitoes leave us alone,
As we dance
To this waltz
This summer waltz
Is our song
But unfortunately only I know it

Can I have one dance?
One night?
Just one
You'll never remember it
But I'll never forget

Maybe just a moment
Passing
Not even speaking
Just this song playing
If only in my heart
