I vow to shine, like a sapphire, some gem!
I promise, not to whine, but smile till the end.
The symphony of my life
like a violin I will play,
I would vouch,
Vehement to my life I lay.

What I loved about this piece, apart from the fact that it is bold and shouts out loud, are these 1a, 1b things - the sub-divisions actually. Never witnessed them else where so they seemed to be impressive. Amazing write though! :D 4/5 stars!

Haha. Yup. It's sort of an oddball piece. :)

“I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best.”

This is...a funny short meditation, i'm guessing? This poem is pretty warming and fuzzy you know.
