&ldquo;And I knew her soul wasn&rsquo;t something to take lightly. In a world where very little truth existed, her soul was a pariah, standing alone burning like a wildfire in my bones&ndash; a flaming crescent across pale midnight skies.&rdquo;<br /> &mdash; <br /> Christopher Poindexter

She decided that every drop of tear she cries,
She will name them each, and collect it in a jar.
And later when the earth is lit up by the radiant of her laugh,
Her smile will vaporize each tear into the aura of this universe.
