"Love. Fall in love and stay in love. Write only what you love, and love what you write. The key word is love. You have to get up in the morning and write something you love, something to live for." -Ray Bradbury

With a fragile heart I look into your eyes.

I know he was no good- he fed me so much lies.

I feel closer to you everyday.

Will you be here to stay?

Should I go for it?

Will you like me even one bit?

I’m surrounded by fear

But your voice is all I hear

And I want to know

Should I take it and go?

A poem to everyone has been woeful of someone else for the pain they never caused. :)
