The pen is mightier? Not anymore. Now all those mighty, choose hatred and war. Deception and death, mistrust and mistakes. Just one person is all that it takes. Accept one another, our faults and our flaws. And accept ourselves or we all shall fall.
Look into my eyes, and peer into my soul There's just one price to pay, just one tiny toll Blue brown grey or green they're all a sight to see But look into the soul of man, to see who they really be See their soul, see their pain, see their love as well...
"What is it now? Six months? Eight? Who knows anymore…" I sighed and lit up my last cigarette then threw the empty pack off the edge. I enjoyed it as though it'd be my last. Who knows, maybe it will be. I laid back on my chair and put my feet up on...
Nearby, in the ocean, lived an otter by the name of Otto. When Otto was a little baby, he was walking on the beach and spotted something sparkling in the distance. As he walked closer, he found it. A special rock just for him. All otters have one, that on...
