i am the messenger

"Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are."

-I am the Messenger, Markus Zusak

a small but noteworthy note

I have seen so many young men 

over the years who think they'rerunning 

at other young men. 

They are not. 

They're running at me.
