About Me

My photo
I want the world to make sense. I try to make it my life's goal to connect to every living thing I meet, whether it has two legs, four legs, or chlorophyll for arms. Love in all its forms is a constant chase for me and as Robert Browning said " it takes up one's life, thats all." I am often Nostalgia's Nightingale and live in memories of the past, but I know my future is radiant. Tear drops are sweet to me and seem to follow my countenance on sad days, but I love to laugh. Were the world mine... we would never grow old and we would all kiss when greeting a friend. All writings are my own so you will find comma splices and many run on sentences. The pictures have been taken by my dear friend Isabel Turley . One of the most brilliant and beautiful girls I know. Thankyou and I hope you enjoy.

Ode to a Princess

            We are beautiful because we love.
            We are radiant because we laugh.
            We are magnificent because we dance.
            We love, laugh and dance because we stay.

After all the warm words that poets write and truths that liars break and hearts that people abandon, we stay and hold the other through the storm and if one dies the other will follow.

We will always question that kiss on the hand or that hug tight pressed against our body and promises will never mean a damn thing, but we will always have each other.

I live for mornings you arrive and save me from the night and together we conquer the streets with song and dance, proclaiming nothing but the taste of mint coffee on our lips and repititions of "always be there" against the air bag.

Filling the sqaure with laughter and memories of when we thought fire was the Savior. However when the fire burned and that lying jesus dweller ran away we understood that we are each others splendor.

We may not solve world peace but we have peace within ourselves because we never left.
