If zombies attack us..im tripping u
If you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will go through life thinking its stupid.
If you love somthing then let it go, if it doesn't come back it was never yours.
I'm scared to fall and be dropped.

You're like that song
I sing in the car
the one to which
I know every word
You're like that air
I breath in every day
the kind in which
i need
You're like that drug
harmless
the one that I am
Addicted to
You're like that knight
in shining armor
to which I owe
my every
waking
aching
breath-filled
addicted moment to

Favorite Quote:
I am someone
I would never have imagined.
A secret.
A dream . . .
body and soul.
Burn me.
Drown me.
Tell me lies.
I will still be who I am.
