Favorite Quote:
To me, &ldquo;FEARLESS&rdquo; is not the absence of fear. It&rsquo;s not being completely unafraid. To me, FEARLESS is having fears. FEARLESS is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, FEARLESS is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.<br /> <br /> - Taylor Swift

As I sit in my bedroom
The rain pours down
The drops rushing down the clear glass
They look like teardrops

I catch sight of my reflection
My cheeks look just like
That glass window
With the tears coming down
Just like that rain

I'm pale, my eyes blue
Like water
They look like the glass in that window
Where I am watching myself cry
