Favorite Quote:
Our street corners keep secrets, and our road signs only suggest, never deciding for us, never knowing if the destination to which they lead is where we truly belong. ~Alex Gaskarth

My soul would be gone
Diminished in the haze
Thoughts provoke from dusk to dawn
My first glance can’t stop the rays

So much depth in endless talks
How do some live without?
The most precious stone in a pile of rocks
Not enough time, too much to talk about.

Feelings of eternal safety
My softest breaths are with you,
My saving grace.
