More than just eloquent words straddle me. The disbelief seeping through the skin my eyes ravish attest to your fault, not my words. Each syllable's magic deserves to be returned.

You pray so badly for heaven, knowing any day might be the day that you die. But maybe life on Earth could be heaven. Doesn’t just the thought of it make it worth a try?

You think you know people until they look at you straight in the eye and break your heart without even blinking.
