I look back behind me And all I can see Is a lonely forest I wonder where you went. Then I remember you said you’d leave But I didn’t believe you. So I stare into the forest...

&quot;Close your eyes, and keep your mind wide open&quot; -Bridge to Terabithia<br /> &quot;If I&#039;ve learned anything, it&#039;s that my mascara isn&#039;t waterproof.&quot; -Sammie Jameston (Mascara Isn&#039;t Waterproof)<br /> &quot;When I say I love you. You say you don&#039;t deserve it. When I say I need you . You say I deserve someone better, When I say my life is better with you. You say I don&#039;t know any better. But when I kiss you, you say I love you, When I have to go, you say I need you. When I am with you, you know, that there is no better feeling then our love coming together and that is something we both deserve.&quot;

People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct or true. That is how they define reality. But what does it mean to be correct or true? Merely vague concepts....their reality may all be a mirage..... -Itachi Uchiha
