" i close my eyes and all the world drops dead-
i lift my lids, and all is born again"-Plath

" your hands are in my hair, but-
my heart is in your teeth" - Jewel

" perhaps it's just my insanity,
but i thought your heart was candy" -Me




On a poetical note, there's someone I would love for you to read.
He is an incredible poet, the greatest one living, aside from Li-young Lee.

He currently has 3 books of poetry published, sadly, 2 are out of print. Holograms Of Life: As It Stood (1994)
Songs For The Heart To Decipher (1997)

But you can get his most recent collection:  

The World As I Would Paint It ( 2004 )
