“The boy never cried again, and he never forgot what he'd learned: that to love is to destroy, and that to be loved is to be the one destroyed.” -Jace Wayland City of Bones

I will shine so bright like a shining star
If I must be so quaint
My dreams will take me near and far
Be careful that you don’t faint

When you see me up there, my name in lights
Crowds are stretching from here to there
The guards will protect me like brave knights
But I will make sure I take special care

Of the ones that helped me reach the top
The people that helped my dream come true
For their loving and caring will never stop
No matter what I have done or do

Just you wait and see one day
In those lights my name will lay

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
