why
i lay my head down surrounded by all the love in the world but couldnt find a single reason to hold the tears back and so i cried, and asked when will it stop. when will i not remember when will i not torture myself, when will i learn? when will i just let it go and look at the past with just simple rememberence and no longer feel that stab in the back or the infuriating thoughts that accompany my reminisence. why wont it stop? they told me before i walk away make sure u say all you have to say.. but, i didnt and now all the things i think and should have voiced are rotting away inside of me eating up my words, my thoughts, my future. tell me god why cant i forget? why cant i just live. no matter how good things get im still crying? why cant i get over my once broken heart?

O qual, não me premitia uma total e plena entrega ao AMOR, quando digo amor não me refiro única e exclusivamente ao amor entre homem e mulher, mas a todo o UNIVERSO. O AMOR por mim própria.
