Favorite Quote:
"And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music." -Friedrich Nietzsche


In the darkness,
Illuminated solely by stars,
Where secrets lie,
What will you find?

At one corner,
Where some found death disguised as love,
Or tragedy covered in senseless romanticism.
What will you find?

At another corner, under sweet pillows,
Where others found nightmares masked as dreams,
That showed their true identity at the first sign of light.
What will you find?

And yet at another corner,
Where some others found a mystery lovely under starlight,
Only to stab them in the back in the daylight.
What will you find?

What
Will
You
Find?
