Favorite Quote:
"I think therefore I am" --??


Angel, if only, I could have all of you.

Bubbling up, my words

Come slow, but

Down your eyes go;

Even your eyelids

Fall, covering those beautiful windows;

Going further and further, till I'm lost in you.

How can this be?

I've never been this person before;

Just watching, as everything falls around you;

Killing me, covering me.

Love, you're suffocating

Me, but I do love it; how the air around you is

Noxious.

Old and new, falling and flying, opening and closing,

Pushing and pulling,

Questioning and demanding,

Ripping me apart.

Serene and

Thrilling, I feel it in my bones and

Under my skin.

Volatile but comforting;

When you stop, I am nothing but an

"X" on your page, but you are my

Zenith.
