"Love is the slowest form of suicide."
" The loudest cry is silence."
" Light travel faster then sounde this why most people appear bright until you hear them speak."
"The best beauty comes from the worst pain."

In the shadows their love was hidden unable to make its claim
Fear of judgement pressed in their hearts so their kisses became much retrained
And soon the taunts of others produced a love so detained
They died crying tears of longing drowning in they're sinful fame

"I want a life that sizzles and pops and makes me laugh out loud. I want my everyday to make God belly laugh, glad that he gave life to someone who loves the gift, who will use it up and wring it out and drag it around like a favorite sweater." -SN
