If I were to die today
I think it would be okay
For I have felt and seen things
Some go their entire lives without
Sure, I wouldn't have your warm embrace
But, I have lifted my hands to the sky,
Singing my song on high,
With the sun shining down on my face
Sure, I'll never get to dance with you beneath the moon
But, I've watched her many phases under many a sky
Sure, I'll never get to kiss you in the rain
But, I have seen the pink clouds in a never ending Phoenix sky
Maybe dying today wouldn't be so okay
Sure, I've marveled at God's creation all around the world
But, never before have I seen a pair of grey eyes quite like yours
Sure, you'll never hand me flowers
But, I've planted thousands to be picked
Sure, I'll never get out of here with you, the way I know we'll want to
But, I've snorkeled under the sea
Where I've reached out to sea turtles right next to me
If I were to die today, it would not be okay
For there is so much more to come with you

To Love the Rain
"I'd write and sing every single day. I'd scream and dance and take all the crazy chances and shoot my shot with all the people who might never see me that way. I wouldn't plan it either; it would just be raw and real and aching with the desperation of wishing that I had more time. But I don't, so I'm gonna make use of every Goddamn second that I have left. I'd laugh in the rain, and scream at the edge of cliffs, and dance on top of cars, and I'd just live." She broke off. "I'd just live."Complete

Moth
They say the world used to turn. They say that night would follow day in an endless dance. They say that dawn rose, dusk fell, and we worshiped both sun and stars. That was a long time ago. The dance has died. The world has fallen still. We float through the heavens, one half always in light, one half always in shadow. Like the moth of our forests, one wing white and the other black, we are torn. My people are the fortunate. We live in daylight, blessed in the warmth of the sun. Yet across the line, the others lurk in eternal night, afraid... and alone in the dark. I was born in the light. I was sent into darkness. This is my story.Complete
Wishing Upon Dandelions
I was hideous. Wait, let me correct that. I am hideous and will forever be. Even the beast from the Beauty and the Beast is more attractive. But looks were not the top of my priority list. I guess you can say finding eternal happiness is what I am striving for. Being the naive little girl I was back then, I believed that eternal happiness was the answer to any problem. Naturally, I wished upon every dandelion I blew on, hoping for that happiness I once knew when Father was still alive. But as time passed by, fate made it clear that my eternal happiness would never be granted. All hope seemed far, like the dandelion seeds drifting away in the wind once you blew on them. So, gradually I stopped wishing on every passing star. And finally stopped wishing upon dandelions. *WARNING: THIS IS MY FIRST WORK AND NEEDS MAJOR REVISIONS.*Complete
