Favorite Quote:
Everywhere, man blames nature and fate, yet his fate is only the echo of his character and passions, his mistakes and his weaknesses


I have the urge
to run down in blue night
just to see what is left
from the story.

Some say the blackberries are
gone now,
but i need to touch and
remember every song left
between thorns
and bittersweet memories

I originally wrote this to depict my feelings when summer was finally coming to an end

I love this poem. It's very short but conveys everything in those ten lines.

I am amazed by this beautiful and very poetic piece. Every bit of it is my favorite and every word a treasure. This is a wonderful way to depict your feelings with brevity. Well done, my dear, well done.
