Quote of the day:
The question is not what you look at, but what you see -Henry David
Many things have happened
water passed under this living bridge
there's a seige on our emotions
everything that i wanted i let go
memories are leaves
and i walk on them daily
i remember you
i remember your eyes
the twinkle in them and those smiles....
i remember us
i remember our dreams
the beauty of it intoxicating...
i remember life...
future looked so far away...
now it's just another day
i remember you...
violin strings of melody
you and i Siamese twins-what a tragedy
Current Listen: Avril Lavigne -Forgotten
