fault lines
By Jade.I.Am ELITE
Fishers, Indiana

3 a.m. on a Monday night, your words rive my skin like pavement when an earthquake strikes and I swear these fault lines will never piece perfectly back together leaving...

&quot;Guys, I think I&#039;m gonna join clown school... But that means I have to grow size 15 feet and a big red nose. Naw, I&#039;ll just learn to fake it, but that&#039;s after I get an afro.&quot;

I&#039;ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. <br /> - Maya Angelou <br /> When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn&rsquo;t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out<br /> The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay<br /> If love produced a blossom/I&rsquo;d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I&rsquo;d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven<br /> And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel
