Favorite Quote:
"There is a pleasure in the pathless woods,<br /> There is a rapture on the lonely shore,<br /> There is society, where none intrudes,<br /> By the deep Sea, and music in its roar:<br /> I love not Man the less, but Nature more." <br /> -Lord Byron

I'm drowning in the words I don't say,

I'm choking on the air that escapes,

I'm burning from the feelings I don't face,

I don't trust myself alone.
