With you, even the lightest touch lingers,
Both our hearts beating like a metronome,
How this all started I can't distinguish;
Our fates collide but they claim it's all wrong.
You're my sunshine after the seven plagues,
You're the sweetest sin I'm proud to commit;
An unforgiving passion with a face,
Irrevocable love which I admit.
They say that with you, I have lost my mind,
But I've disowned it very long ago;
Please don't lead me astray, or have me find
That the paths intertwined just aren't so.
Allow me to get lost inside those eyes,
But find me and keep me, make them ask why.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

Favorite Quote:
"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
