Every Time I even think of you, all those bad memories just fade away, 'cause your smile's enough, you're enough...


A journey to a fortress
The fortress is our soul,
Pushing us with fuel
It powers us like coal,


A tremor shakes the ground
It brings us to a halt,
We blame each other for the deaths
That we knew were all our faults,


But there will come a leader
A champion who will rise,
Who controls the people and the land
That will sever all the ties,


We will secede  away again
And learn how to be free,
Searching for a world
That is beautiful to see,


Rise up and break the chain
Wipe the dust from all our eyes
And make a world that's perfect
Yet always will defy.

"It Will Be Good." (complicated semi-spiritual emotional story.)

"Upon his bench the pieces lay
As if an artwork on display
Of gears and hands
And wire-thin bands
That glisten in dim candle play." -Janice T., Clockwork[love that poem, dont know why, im not steampunk]
