Favorite Quote:
“A hero is someone who rebels or seems to rebel against the facts of existence and seems to conquer them. Obviously that can only work at moments. It can't be a lasting thing. That's not saying that people shouldn't keep trying to rebel against the facts of existence. Someday, who knows, we might conquer death, disease and war.” -Jim Morrison

Who can I tell, that will listen,
That I think more of death than of life?
Who can I tell, that will believe,
That I have never felt warmth?
Who can I tell, that will understand,
The gore I see when I close my eyes?
Who can I tell, that will see,
That I need help
Now more than ever before?
