I worked in the fields to be free But, all you hear is “Whoosh” I’m whipped you hear me scream My master says “Sshhh” The whip is like a python that comes alive It bites me....

Oftentimes we say goodbye to the person we love without wanting to. Though that doesn’t mean that we've stopped loving them or we've stopped to care. Sometimes goodbye is a painful way to say I love you....

&quot;Absence from the ones we love is self from self-- a deadly banishment.&quot; -William Shakespere<br /> <br /> &quot;Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.&quot; -Leonardo De Vinci<br /> <br /> &quot;Seduce my mind<br /> ...and speak those words to the point of<br /> contradiction.<br /> Hypocrisy never seemed so beautiful.<br /> Your lips have it down to an<br /> art. Oh, I know I&#039;m in love with<br /> wordplay.<br /> Speak to me,<br /> &#039;til your lips are numb.<br /> We&#039;ll always have pen and paper. &quot; -By Anonymous, Mississauga, Canada
