Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;These violet delights have violent ends<br /> And in their triumph die, like fire and powder.<br /> Which, as they kiss, consume. The sweetest homey<br /> Is loathsome in his own deliciousness<br /> And in the taste confounds the appetite.<br /> Therefore love moderately: long love doth so:<br /> Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.&quot;<br /> -Friar Lawrence.

Beautiful
How beautiful
You are,
Don’t you see?
The world tells you,
You’re not good enough,
You’re not perfect,
So you listen to them,
When you see yourself in the mirror,
Do you realize
That He loves you
For who you are?
Beauty isn’t all just
What people see,
It’s the beauty of your heart.
You’ve pushed those aside,
“It’s not what’s important,”
You think to yourself,
But when
Beauty fades,
What will be there
In the end?
