I don’t believe that we ever meet another person by chance and I also think that sometimes the only reason that we don’t have the life we want is that we aren’t yet ready for it.

Poetry Series – Storm
Do you ever stop and think about the way the song you just love was really written about some person out there that you’ll never know?

Perhaps this seems problematic as if finding the source would let me solve the problem faster. Maybe that’s true but I can’t help butContinue reading “Poetry Series – Dark Figure”
