Your endless worries cascade from you as if you have grown branches from own limbs. Yet the light within your eyes does not dim but a fire grows within them. […]

Missing Piece
Light filters through in rays Glittering on a brand-new day Pieces of the puzzle closer in view The missing piece was always you. Leaving clues for me to find It was just a matter of time The stars and sky to blend right through And lead me right back to you. Would you believe me […]
