Conversations I should have joined.

as a narrator to my life,
It can't be a secret when I admit

Not when, for time can't penetrate This cloak of sleepy silence, my limp, uncaring limbs Spent time is not a wait Nor spent will an action, nor's guilt alongside sin But all serves to sedate
And it's over much too fast I roll over, toss my thoughts ar
| Hey DeviantArt, you can call me A.L.M. I am an aspiring... something-or-other, but writing is something I really love to do.

Feel free to comment, I love feedback, and ask me about being vegetarian! |
