Favorite Quote:
To make a difference in the world, you have to be different from the world.


In your eyes lay a million unshod tears
Guarded by a strength beyond your years

You have seen what no man should ever see
Leaving you its scarring memory

No more a child but survivor is your name
Of a hundred unlived years you hold to claim

The hate of war and pain of death harden your walls
In your eyes a child dies in tears that fall
