Favorite Quote:
Even tears are lies.


Your silhouette

And harsh breath

Space in your eyes

But louder are your lies

Our hands are entwined

Walking blind

Not you, but me

Trusting you was a plea

For you to stay

But that died that day

For you left me

Somehow only I couldn't see

Your upcoming funeral


The author's comments:

I usually just start off with my beginning sentence and let the words lead me. And I just hope it makes sense in the end.
