"How could you!?" I screamed, my voice coming out broken and hurt. He pulled away from her quickly, "Bab-" he started, but I turned around and walked out before he could finish. I shook my head as I slammed the door, and walked out. Out of his house, out of his life. Away from love. Lexie wants to forgive. But lies, and mistrust make it so hard to do that. She wants to understand why people do this, why people sin, why they hurt each other for their own self gratification. Pain is a apart of life, which people learn to accept, but a small few want to fully understand.

Paradise, is the one place where it's just you and your dreams; all your good, healthy dreams. My paradise... is on a beach, with a fuzzy, shimmery air, and warm, clear water, with the sun above. And these, well, they're poems, and between every line is something. Maybe it's grief, or love, or hope, but in the end, it makes me who I am, and brings me one step closer to happiness. *COMPLETED POETRY OOK*
