Favorite Quote:
Well, let it pass. April is over, April is over. There are all kinds of love in this world, but never the same love twice.


I don’t want your silk flowers,
I want your dying daisies,
I want your rubbish roses,
I want your listless lavender and pale poppies.

Real flowers wither,
Real love isn’t fit for show.

Silk flowers don’t need sun,
But I need you.

About a boy I know who likes to give away cheap declarations of love to anyone who'll take them, because he loves to be kind. This is for him, even though he'll never read it.
