I'm staring in the mirror, thinking of our past.
What would come of our future?
How long will we last?
It’s like everyone is trying to destroy what we have.
Why can't we just be happy?
Who is in charge of these horrible tasks?
Be strong, my love, don't give in.
Keep saying that you love me, don't let the others win.
I'm your lady.
I'm your love.
I'm your, gentle- winged dove.
Don't lose this fight.
Stay strong.
Just keep saying that you love me,
Until the storm has passed on.
Those weren't lies that you told me in the past.
So please, allow this love to last.

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

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
