Colors

8 Apr , 2009  

You are the rainbow paintbrush that colors the entire canvas of my life. No music can be great if there’s no life breathed into it. How’s that? You are the life in someone else’s life. You are the force that induces tears of untold, quiet bliss. You are that white knight with that toothy smile […]
