Electric hills and mountain tops
Where runaways run far
Just run away with me, my dear
Uncover who we are
Beneath the stars and blanket black
We lie and watch the moon
I’d lie with you forever more
And sing the same night’s tune

I’ll keep you far from war and such
And hold you close tonight
I’ll give you all that I can give
And try to be your light
So run away with me, my dear
And bring me all your love
You’re the girl from all the movies
The one that I’ve dreamt of.

© Allison H., Vancouver, WA

Favorite Quote:
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn&#039;t serve the world. There&#039;s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won&#039;t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We are born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It&#039;s not just in some of us, it&#039;s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.<br /> -Marianne Williamson

Isn&#039;t it ironic? We ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones that love us.

Aw, that's so sweet. Did you show this to that girl? I think she'd be ecstatic to see it.
