1. Talk about the first time you watched your favourite movie.

-The research and thought I had put into obtaining this film was obsessive for a boy of my age at the time... But after the sheer amount of life changing ideals presented in the film, it had all been worth it. Suddenly everything around me was so different, so bright and full of wonder. I understood those I loved far better than before, because now, I had something to compare their actions to and I was better for it. 

9. Talk about a vacation.

-Greenville, South Carolina, is a beautiful city, imbued with art and the modernist’s natural attempt to coexist with nature. We took a family picture next to the art gallery where I had wanted a print of a panther tensed to pounce; we look  happy in that picture. 

26. Talk about songs that remind you of certain people.

You do realize I write so many poems about the ocean? Or maybe you did and realized they were all kind of...bittersweet. That's the thing with me and the ocean, though.

Your waters are depths of emotion I can only imagine. 

You are joy. You are sorrow. You are hate. You are love.

But I see in you only fear

What lies beneath the shimmering surface? Will a being of your gentle creation rise to caress me? Will a creature of terror attack to protect you from me?

When I try to tell you I am here to as a comfort, will you believe me? 

I want to see you as so many others do

I want to leap from the dock and into you and let myself fall and I want to allow myself to be embraced by you and feel you in every respect, to let you in-

But, I am a boulder resting on your shores instead. Immovable. My strength is an illusion for next to you, next to the very will of the sea itself...what is stone and fire?
