*Don't Laugh at me
Don't call me names
Don't Get your pleasure from my pain
In God's Eyes we're all the same
Some day we'll all have perfect wings...*
Just tell Nemo you couldn't find him because you were getting high. He'll understand.
lNlElMlOl... ur anit-drug
be a Fruit Loop in a world of cheerios...
Save a horse- Ride a cowboy...
Sometime u gotta cry laugh dance and scream at the same time. Sometime you have to stand in the rain. Sometimes you have to kiss somebody and tell them how you feel. Sometimes you have to stay up talking to your best friend all night.And that's what life's all about, right?
