"Dream with my eyes open, sleep when I'm dead, love who my heart's chosen, and conquer what lies ahead." -Ryan Follese (lead singer of Hot Chelle Rae)


I sang my song.
A silent song.
And I played it over



and over




and over
in my head.
It went to no rhythm, to no beat.
Yet I couldn't get it out of my mind.
HOW CAN LIFE BE WORTH LIVING IF THERE'S NO ONE TO SHARE IT WITH?
I asked myself - is this me?
Who is this about? What can it mean?
This silent song,


it felt so wrong,



it felt so right.

I'm an only child. I was raking leaves in my backyard, when I made up the capitalized phrase. I had finished raking, and was about to jump in my pile, when, I stopped having fun. I was lonely, and I just walked away.
