Don’t tell us we are dying Don’t let the words sink in For death is part of life We are born into this dying world We were safe once With the blood of our mother in the womb...

Listen to the mustn&#039;ts, child. Listen to the don&#039;ts. Listen to the shouldn&#039;ts, the impossibles, the won&#039;ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me... Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.&rdquo; - Shel Silverstein

&quot;How do you feel? That is the question, but I forget you don&#039;t expect an easy answer. When something like a soul becomes initialized and folded up like paper dolls and little notes you can&#039;t expect a bit of hope...&quot;<br /> -Stone Sour &quot;Through the Glass&quot;
