Favorite Quote:
Life never tells us the whens or whys


Sometimes I wonder,what if I die alone.
Would the world carry on without me leaving shadows that gleam gold ?
Like certain trees don't require soil to grow,
I'm the type of person that builds, creates, and walks their own path, alone.

Sometimes I wonder is there such a thing called love ?
I listen to songs about the feeling of spring time in winter and Christmas in June,
all are songs about a girl that would make the singer feel brand new.

I'm not the one to express my feelings, nor the one to express my shame ,
which is why my favorite song is “Why do fools fall in love” ,
because I believe that love is just a game.

Sometimes I wonder if life is reality,
because everything that happens to me seems to be a tragedy.
And that every friendship seems to go astray,
but that’s only because our flaws in life are just another plot change.

And sometimes I drift into that little place in my mind,
where I find comfort to the sound of wind chimes.
And the repetition in my mind gets my gears going, and going,
leaving me with the thought,
where is my life going?

This was actually a poem I wrote for a poetry slam I had participated in at school. This poem is about my understanding on the meaning of life.
