-I&#039;m probably the coolest dork you&#039;ll ever meet.<br /> -I&#039;m 99% sure he doesn&#039;t like me, it&#039;s that 1% that keeps me hanging on.<br /> -The woman came from a mans rib, not from his feet to be walked on,not from his head to be superior, but from the side to be equal, under the arm to be protected, and next to the heart to be loved

Without your love
I would be an open door
with no handle.
Opening and closing to whoever ventures near,
but never able to lock them in.

You are my dream catcher
that warns away my fears
forever guarding my soundless sleep
as my mind begins to clear.

words: 47

I have had writers block for some time. But the other night I had an idea pop into my head, and I had to write it down.
