Favorite Quote:
It has been said, ‘time heals all wounds.’ I do not agree. The wounds remain. In time, the mind, protecting its sanity, covers them with scar tissue and the pain lessens. But it is never gone.

on the edge of insanity
i sit,
tears in my eyes
and head in hand
control over my emotions has been lost
the pain of your death
its a pain i cant tolerate
your constantly on my mind
controlling my thoughts
why dont you just leave me alone ,
let me live this life

this being said
i think
im ready to move on
on the edge
staring at the fall that awaits
one question remains

when i fall
will you catch me
or let me fall to my death?
