Favorite Quote:
"Impossible is not a word; it's a reason for someone not to try" (Kutless).


My life can be told
By a skipping stone,
Bouncing on salt water
Up and down and--

Under.

I always made waves,
Disturbed the
Silence
Around me.

As a child,
I hollered
As a teen,
I spoke

And people listened--

Until I,
Losing my
Desperation,
went under,
Became smooth and
Silent--

Like the world around me.
