Difficult is not impossible - Relient K, "Hope for Every Fallen Man"


If all I had was love, would I still be lovely?
If all I gave was love, would you give up on me?
-House of Heroes, "Love is for the Middle Class"

Beauty in Bones,
folding your reflection
the two ends meet,
careful not to tear.
Light, Empty
lie with the Clouds
rejecting the rain.
Heavy your Heart
cuts every breath
shredding the air around.
It is Love, It is Perfection
you say "one more."
mirror, mirror
just one more.
