A thousand blades may wound your heart, The last strings of hope you cling to so painfully bleeds out like the wail of a lover loved and lost.

"Mom" The nights often feel cold, even though it's the month of May. I shudder awake sometimes, and look around in the darkness. The only person I'm looking for is you.
