Favorite Quote:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the number of moments that take our breath away.


In Gatsby's eyes
Daisy told no lies
Her tail of love
Gatsby viewed her as a dove
so pure and sweet
Gatsby's heart skipped a beat
Neither knew
What this would do
Daisy had his heart
She tore it apart
Gatsby was broken
His mind stayed open
how daisy feels is hidden
But their love remains forbidden
