"A smile a day keeps a crisis away."



Caroline: Two loves, one life and nothing in between besides words and Jackson Browne.



There was a boy who the girl loved and he kept her safe and called her his tiny dancer. She was happy and happy and happy and nothing could harm her.

What is wrong with this picture?






O hsa yyo ulov em ean dI'l llov eyo utoo!

Neoflame - Father






I have my little backwards mind with its insane phonetics and memorable pain, but you have that letter and, damn it, I want it back.







Write Write Write WRONG Write Write Write WRONG

That's what they say, and I put my heart and soul into everything I do, so why can't they accept anything?






 





Bubbles popping and a river splashing out of the eyes that had ceased to work anymore. They had quit the undeniable blanketing of eyelashes destined to remember the face that had once she so loved. And the girl was seeing a new face quite more perfect for her loving heart. But the criminal girl needed now only to let go of the old face. How could she?

 

   How could she ever let go?

For taking the trouble, for hanging on and tryin' Now you've been working through the rubble of a shattered mind

Yeah Baby, tell me why the tears are falling from your eye Tears of laughter, tears of grief, are they the tears of a captured thief?

You thought that you were home free, thought you had her well in hand But there were things about her you didn't understand

Yeah Baby, tell me how you're gonna keep that promise now? To live your life without regret and make it work with what you get

You didn't then, but now you know When she began to lie-you really should have let her go

You're learnin' how to talk about it, you're learnin' how to bend It's like you're learning how to walk all over again

Yeah Baby, tell me who you're gonna give your lovin' to? That girl who catches every eye Or the one you can set your compass by
You set it by her soulful smile The fire in her eye And the way she goes that extra mile The love you wanted this to be Is somewhere down the line You'll find her eventually

Your grandma and her grandma Sittin' 'round heaven discussin' the law Lovin' that girl was not your crime, Livin' without her gonna take some time Lovin' that girl next thing you knew, You'd turned away from the thing you do Lovin' that girl, you couldn't see Living without her gonna make you free

Lyrics by Jackson Browne
Jackson Browne: the greatest inspiration ever to inspire this poet.
