Favorite Quote:
Time grabs you by the wrist directs you where to go. So make the best of this test and don't ask why. It's not a question but a lesson learned in time.

Wandering, neglecting thought.
Life is but a dream, and reoccurring.
Sounds remain the same, just as she remembered.
Taking the same path.
That brick pillar.
Refuge for the lost.
Is what she calls home, momentarily.
Eternally.
Her footsteps chime history of a thousand years,
Lives in the now, which she will never have.
Beautiful stone cold lips, pursed-
Je suis à la maison?
