We are the lovesick. The fearless ones. The never giving up.<br /> The hearts undone. Sick with the desire to love. To live so far<br /> beyond the boundaries given to us. We are the fence-hopping<br /> fools who never stopped to read the signs. The ones that left<br /> the world behind. Like dreams we&rsquo;ve drawn in neon light. Just<br /> moments in the sea of time. We are the lost ones wandering.<br /> The soon to be smoldering. Last to be found. The first to fall and<br /> fail to fly then shatter on the ground. We are the rebels running<br /> wild through a darkness that can swallow us. But we&rsquo;ve set fire<br /> to our souls. Burning brilliant blinding gold. The flames that illuminate<br /> our lonely road. Our futures holding fates untold. We are the<br /> ever-refusing to fold. To fade away or worse to lose. The few that<br /> bend and break apart the cages of our rules. Born desperate for the<br /> promise of the mystery unknown. We are the lovesick. And just like<br /> the sun we will always rise. Hope still shining in our eyes...<br /> -Jason Reeves
