I love your voice,
your soft brown hair.
I love your eyes
and love your stare.

I love your laugh,
your cocky smirk,
your stupid jokes.
You precious jerk,

you know I do.
I want my hands
all through your hair
each treasured strand.

I’m wrapped around
your finger still.
Am I yet yours?
Your love does kill

the things I hold
so close to me
and yet you’re the
best jerk I see.

People want to know why I do this, why I write such gross stuff. I like to tell them I have the heart of a small boy... and I keep it in a jar on my desk. <br /> -Stephen King :P<br /> The trust of the innocent is the liar&#039;s most useful tool. <br /> -Stephen King<br /> Now that we&#039;re here, <br /> It&#039;s so far away <br /> All the struggle we thought was in vain <br /> All the mistakes, <br /> One life contained <br /> They all finally start to go away <br /> Now that we&#039;re here its so far away <br /> And I feel like I can face the day <br /> I can forgive and I&rsquo;m not ashamed to be the person that I am today

&ldquo;Nothing can possibly be as cute as David Tennant holding a kitten. Cause the kitten is adorable and then David Tennant is adorable and then your head explodes and you wake up on the floor of your bedroom twenty minutes later with a sock in one hand and a crushed diet coke can in the other. If you&rsquo;re lucky. If not, you die of fangasm. Although if that happened to me because of Jack, I could probably get Death by Torchwood on my death certificate&hellip;.&rdquo;

Right down to the brown hair and amazing eyes. :P Wonderful, and the best description of love that there really is. Not the happiness, but the pain.
