This isn't a chapter. I apologize if you are disappointed that I haven't been updating. I will though, I will continue telling the story of Lucas and Sandra because I've come way too far to give up now, but in the meantime I have a poem to share :

Gold was never found shiny :

Is it enough?
Is it worth it?
Worth the crying
Worth the feud between my heart
And mind

Worth the fear of not being enough.
I thought I didn't care
To my surprise
My heart drops
when excluded from the eyes of the beholder
I don't think
it's selfishness
or attention-seeking.
But lack of affection

I am not seeking Romeo
But Benvolio
a true, worthy friend
Who I can trust to
Defend
Protect
And reunite
Even after the forces
Of lifelessness take over
And leaves me cold
Pale, at a platform
where no human wants to be.

Am I not worth it?
Am I not worthy of the
On stage, standing ovation?

Do I deserve the behind the
Closed curtain 'thanks'?
The appreciation?
A trophy was never given secretly
A well deserving man take it with pride

Have You no pride in me?
Gold will always be valuable
No matter the miner
Are you not yet fulfilled with that
You have mined?
Or are you that planted in greed
And the roots of wealth attached
To your spine

See, I know my value
It's just that you don't see it
Gold was never found shiny.

                        Bsk.
