"Poetry flows. Right from my heart, to the paper. The best poems create themselves within your heart, and your mind...well, the mind interprets them... See, think of your heart as the artist, and your mind as the audience... get it?"

Twist my breath with lies and charms
Wrap me in my lovers arms
Whisper slow and make me feel
Even if it isn't real
Just tonight, please, take me home
So I don't have to be alone.

The author's comments:
Everyone has those nights where the weight of the world drains them of every energy, emotion, thought.. and you're just numb. And you need to feel something, even if that something will vanish into the light when day breaks. It means not having to face the darkness alone.
