Favorite Quote:
Happiness is like a butterfly
The more you chase it
The more it will elude you
But if you turn your attention to other things
It will come and sit softly on your shoulder. - Henry David Thoreau

In that single second eternity
I felt my heart morph
Into one white dwarf
Which in turn
Bloomed into a supernova
Shedding stardust
Upon stardust, upon stardust

Ah, I pretty much wrote this right after I was heartbroken. I tried to capture what it felt like, aha.
