&quot;We make up horrors to help us escape from the real ones.&quot;- Stephen King<br /> &quot;But I don&#039;t want comfort. I want God, I want poetry. I want danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.&quot;- Aldous Huxley


You said I was your pine tree,
Tall and strong,
With ballerina branches
Swaying in the wind.

Overflowing with sweet-smelling needles,
The soft kind,
That enveloped me like a faux fur coat.

You'd lay beside my trunk
And whisper dear nothings into my bark.
Mindlessly dissecting fallen needles
That once grew from open-armed branches

That sheltered you from an infinite supply
Of blistering winter suns.
