Favorite Quote:
“Maybe you can afford to wait. Maybe for you there's a tomorrow. Maybe for you there's one thousand tomorrows, or three thousand, or ten, so much time you can bathe in it, roll around it, let it slide like coins through you fingers. So much time you can waste it.
But for some of us there's only today. And the truth is, you never really know.”
― Lauren Oliver, Before I Fall


I don't remember your name,
Or your appearance,
But I'll never forget your soul.
I saw you for a single day.
We stood under the roaring sky,
scattered raindrops fell to and fro.
You said to me "When it rains, I will stand over you."
It was raining tears when I stood over you.
You, the kindest soul I had ever met
Took your own life.
I will never forget you.
I swear, I will never forget you.
I was too young.
I don't remember your name,
Or even your appearance,
But still, I will never forget you.
