Favorite Quote:
A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.


Lifeless fingers caress a warm face.
Slowly dancing across the open pores and harmless imperfections.
The nose a bit too crooked and the eyes a little too narrow, but beauty all the same.
Uncaring, yet dutifully the hand brushes away a stray hair as if to show off the noted mistakes.
The caked on powder is a bit too cracked.
Cramped and losing precious time the air seems to fill the room with a stifling heat.
Acceptance of the down cast appearance is not yet revealed.
Mirrors show hazard to the health of one's own mentality.
