Favorite Quote:
"Success is not final, Failure is not fatal; it is the courage to continue that counts."
-Winston Churchill-


Pain.
It flashes.
Like lightening,
It burns.
Sizzling,
Engraved words into flesh.
The ridicule cannot compare
To the torture in my head.
The dangerous time,
Is the time to myself;
The questions,
The answers,
They slam into my mind.
Leaving skid marks
And scars;
They’re a constant reminder.
Confusion stings,
A brand to the hide;
Imprinting the lies
That they left behind.
Glinting.
Gleaming.
The jewels in her eyes;
They sing
Songs of perfection.
The future waits.
Pauses.
Holds its breath,
Waiting for fate.
