“She dances through the night air. With each step, lightning flashes from her eyes like diamonds, and thunder rages like a heart beating in love. Her feet move with an agility and grace that can never be replicated. All things good and beautiful want to feel the warmth of her aura.

She's beautiful and I sit back and watch her dance. She's a light I can't touch. Her brilliance blinds my eyes, but I still can't look away.

She's a song that I can't remember. The melody slips past my ears before I can memorize the progressions. She's the ending of a book I lost before reaching the final pages. She's everything good that can never be replaced, and I don't think I can stand the feeling that makes me want to love her more and more with each passing moment.

She is a goddess.

She can't cure me.

I dream of her but my dreams are dark and she's always one step out of reach. I want to find her but there are too many trees and I get lost easily. I'm left standing out in the rain, water pooling in my sneakers, as she dances away in a sunlight that shines only over her beautiful hair and face.

She is not and can never be mine.

My darkness can't ever break through her charms. I must be strong and keep away. I don't want to make her wilt.

She is a song written for someone else.”

“The bodies we wear," he said. "They're not the ones we always want. They get damaged. Used. It's who we are on the inside that counts. The person waiting to jump free.”

“That left Cam, who was standing close to
Daniel, their arms clapped around each other’s
shoulders.
“You pulled it off, brother.”
“Course I did.” Daniel played at being
haughty, but it came off as love. “Thanks to
you.”
