Favorite Quote:
"I will call the world a school instituted for the purpose of teaching the children to read- I will call the human heart the hornbook used in that school- and I will call the child able to read, the Soul made from that school and its hornbook. Do you not see how necessary a world of pains and troubles is to school an intelligence and make it a soul? A place where the heart must feel and suffer in a thousand diverse ways!" ~John Keats

There are secrets.
Shoved past the door,
Locked away,
Out of reach,
In the attic,
Stuffed in a dark corner.
No one can get in.
Only I can know.
They're bursting to get out,
But they're too big
For anyone to know about.
Too serious,
Too complex.
So they stay.
