"Let the beauty we love be what we do. There are hundreds ways to kneel and kiss the ground." - Rumi


The room spins round
Enclosed by these walls
The laughter echoes
Off of the forgotten memories
The incessant babble fades
Into the encroaching darkness
The faces and places
Are all but a blur
And this feeling overwhelms me
In my darkest time of need
Where did it all go?
Why do these memories
Elude me so?
I didn't even notice
I'd been a stranger to myself
For the longest of time
Do I even have anything
That I can call mine?

&quot;I&#039;d rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I&#039;m not&quot; <br /> &quot;Somewhere betweeen us talking, you saying I deserve better, and you making me laugh when I wanted to cry, I fell in love with you.&quot;

This is short, but it really gets the point across. A lot of people can relate too it...keep it up!
