chills creeps up my back the winds whisper a soft breeze against my cheek I look but nothing is seen I yell to my throat is dry No reply Not able to escape this darkness...

Favorite Quote:
Out of the night that covers me, <br /> Black as the pit from pole to pole, <br /> I thank whatever God may be, <br /> For my unconquerable soul.<br /> <br /> IF YE WERE GODS, YE COULD THEN BE ASHAMED OF CLOTHING<br /> In the fell clutch of circumstance, <br /> I have not cried nor winced aloud, <br /> Under the bludgeoning of chance, <br /> My head is bloody but unbowed.<br /> <br /> Beyond this place of wrath and tears <br /> Looms but the horror of the shade, <br /> And yet the menace of the years <br /> Finds and shall find me unafraid.<br /> <br /> It matters not how straight the gate, <br /> How charged with punishments the scroll, <br /> I am the captain of my fate, <br /> I am the master of my soul.
