"I know how it feels to be completely alone and helpless, and the last thing you want to hear in that situation is, 'It's going to be OK. ' The only thing that seems to really help is that someone else who has felt that low expressing those feelings"

We all have that dream
Where reality is warped,
Where we'd do things we'd never
Imagine.
We walk down the hallway,
Is it really a hallway,
When it's corridors are
Infinite?
Each step echoes in our mind,
Incessantly ringing and powerful,
As we spot the door forever away,
Incapable.
And we love this dream;
It allows us to release our daemons,
And let loose of the world's
Imperfection.
Pure perfection as we open the door,
All our dreams, our fantasies, are
Increasing
in themselves.

Favorite Quote:
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.
