"I've heard it said, that people come into our lives for a reason, bringing something we must learn. And we are lead, to those who help us most to grow, if we let them. And we help them in return. Well, I don't know if I believe that's true, but I know I'm who I am today, because i knew you."
When I was younger, I often found my mind wandering to things in the far future. I dreamt of the first glass of wine that I would consume, or the lovers I would embark on many adventures with. But, I never came close to dreaming that I would meet someone like Jeremiah Leighton. He had been blessed with amazing emerald eyes; that always seemed to be sparkling with mischief. His chestnut curls fell in front of his forehead with every step, shadowing his pale complexion. The man was an angel, a demon, and everything in between. He had an incredible talent of weaving words so perfectly, and enchanting everyone around him. This, "superpower," if you will, could be used in many ways. To manipulate. To charm. To trap. To push away. It was one of his many skills. Just knowing him was an experience. But I can say for sure, that it was his knowledge of the English language that kept me wanting more every single day.
