&quot;If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.&quot;<br /> Henry David Thoreau<br /> <br /> &quot;I fell in love the way you fall asleep; slowly, and then all at once.&quot;<br /> John Green


Somehow I can't help but think
That I'm to blame for everything.
It's always something I did—
Something I wrote—
Something I said.
And somehow I can't help but know
That I'm the subject of their whispers.
It's something I wore—
Some way I acted—
Something wrong I said.

I'm sorry, I’m sorry.
Let me fix it. Give me another chance.
But please,
First give me this opportunity
To feel secure
In your arms.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.
