Live Laugh Love ~Unknown<br /> I&#039;m selfish, impatient, a little insecure but if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best ~Marilyn Monroe <br /> Dream as if you&#039;ll live forever. Live as if you&#039;ll die today. ~James Dean

Tonight I wish upon a sparkling sight
A glittering jewel shining in the sky
A single little solitary light
Oh, so amazing that it makes me sigh
I wish for things of magical decent
Things I know are forever just my dreams.
I wonder where these dreams I dream are sent.
They stay floating in the night sky it seems.
For it seems that my best dream won’t come true.
I wish to see him standing here with me
His hair dark as night; eyes deep brown, not blue
His honey-like speech from across the sea
He’s my world, the best book I’ve ever read.
I wish he existed out of my head.

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
