Sweetest Goodbye
The hardest words to say are the sweetest knots in your throat sweet sour bitter amazing tastes on the tongue The silence turns the turbulent dagger in your heart Words would kill us now Silence makes us strong Thoughts only other broken people can see Tears that brings tears to others stricken with this disease…

Meandering the way
The difference between good and evil is what? The way you believe in your cause, the person on the opposing side believes in theirs, with equal if not more passion than you’ll ever have. I think its great that people rationalize differently and that unique occurances are few and far inbetween. We forget that everyone…

Winter of …

Katrina, Gustav and all the Others.
