The storm noises put me to sleep at night.
The pounding rain against my window is almost like a lullaby.
And I don’t want to hear your voice on the phone.
I never want to hear anyone again.
At least not while my hearts broken.
You finished me off fast…I was surprised,
I thought it’d last.
I didn't think anyone knew these walls were made of glass.
You found out and it only took one hit
to break them…
along with what was inside.

Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don't stay down. When in doubt, don't stop believing.

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
