Night, all.

I am determined to learn to live more in the present than in the future. That is my goal for the rest of the semester. In the effort to effectively see this through my hope is that I will be able to keep up with school. I also intend to look at the bright side of things so that I'm not complaining so frequently. Now I will entertain a use of Dictionary.com's word of the day and inform you all that I am off to assume a quiescent state of mind in order to fall asleep. <3

Fire

Tears fall down and her eyes are ablaze with pain.

Fire surrounds the water that engulfs the dark entrance to her soul.

The tears roll merrily down the fleshy slopes of her cheeks.

They giggle like an endless wave of schoolchildren running home,

Leaving her eyes as empty as the schoolhouse at the  end of the day.
