&quot;Isn&#039;t it funny how you broke my heart, but I still love you with all the pieces?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s easy to stand in a crowd, but it takes courage to stand alone&quot;<br /> &quot;What would you attempt if you knew you could never fail?&quot;

A wrath of you is no bed of roses,
Like sea with differentiating style,
Standing at the bay after it closes,
One minute too late; revealing a smile,
Your rebellious ways are a work of art,
Impressive yet sly way beyond compare,
Snatching importance like you snatched my heart,
Your misdemeanors have deceiving care,
Shall I lay my head down and dream of you,
Motion pictures are dancing through my mind,
Imagining things in a different hue,
But the purpose is difficult to find,
Try and try to catch your sparkling eyes,
Such a lovely life that people despise

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