As time passed by, She had built a world of her own, Darkness being her home, And loneliness her companion. She managed to smile on her own. The   Read More...

There's something about the night, A stillness, a silent chaos.. Something, untouched. A mystery, so captivating That it draws you inside.. Until you are surrounded by the darkness And its just the crickets chirping As if singing a lullaby. And then, there's dreams Of mountains crashing and ball roo  Read More...
