What if I could give this moment to you
and let you keep it in your memory?
The best example of what we could do.
The best way for you to remember me.
Because in this moment we're on fire.
Everything that we could ever be,
Acrobats balanced perfectly on wire.
Your eyes filled wit intensity
their blue reflecting the endless sunshine.
Then as the grey clouds form over our head.
I fail to perceive the blatant sign.
They represent the words we never said.
Leaving it to fate was our biggest mistake.
Sometimes I wonder if our friendship is fake.

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

Favorite Quote:
&quot;Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.&quot; -Lord Alfred Tennyson
