"Blessed are they who see beautiful things in humble places where other people see nothing." ~Camille Pissarro


There's not always a person
Where you would like for one to be
There's not always a reason
That can be clearly seen

There's not always a feeling
Behind each spoken word
There's not always an impact
In truth that can be heard

There's not always a goodbye
When things come to an end
There's not always a moment
Where it's fine to just pretend

There's not always an answer
To questions raging wild
There's not always a soft side
To those who appear mild

But there is always a heartbeat
Behind each step you take
And there is always a hope left
Even when things break

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
- Maya Angelou
When i was little/I used to point a chubby finger toward the dark sky/And ask my father/why some stars moved and others didn’t/He would laugh and explain that some were airplanes/I still wish on them today ~ Laugh-It-Out
The feathers of a crow are black/The ink of my pen is blacker/The pain of my heart is blackest~ Mckay
If love produced a blossom/I’d take it in my palm/What a blessing, the bright color!/How soothing, such a balm!/I’d keep a petal for my own/The rest, drop from my hands/For such a flower would multiply/And populate the lands~ thesilentraven
And I began to rival legends/Long entombed before my birth./But for all my much envied fame/The lust for more would not abate./The plaques and prizes with my name/Will, like all things, disintegrate. ~ TheEpic95 now known as Helena_Noel

This is inspiring and e part where you said "there's not always a goodbye when things come to an end" almost made me cry... :)
