Nothing Like MAG

Nothing takes the blue out of the sky
or the shine out of the sun
or the caress out of the breeze
like good old-fashioned

unrequited love.

This is what you get. This is who I am.
Take me now or leave me
Any way you can.
Sometimes I trip and fall
But I know where I stand.
And if you're thinking about changing my direction,
Don't mess with imperfection.

The room was very quiet. I walked over to the TV set and turned it onto a dead channel-white noise at maximum decibels, a fine sound for sleeping, a powerful continuous hiss to drown out everything strange."

Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels.
The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes -
the ones who see things differently.
They're not fond of rules and they have no respect for the status quo.
They push the human race forward.

It isn't bad, but I'm not sure I would use "caress" to describe an action that the wind does. But it was still pretty good:)
