Walt Whitman
I sit and look out upon all the sorrows of the world, and upon all
    oppression and shame;
I hear secret convulsive sobs from young men, at anguish with
    themselves, remorseful after deeds done;
I see, in low life, the mother misused by her children, dying,
    neglected, gaunt, desperate;
I see the wife misused by her husband—I see the treacherous seducer
    of young women;
I mark the ranklings of jealousy and unrequited love, attempted to be
    hid—I see these sights on the earth;
I see the workings of battle, pestilence, tyranny—I see martyrs and
    prisoners;
I observe a famine at sea—I observe the sailors casting lots who
    shall be ****’d, to preserve the lives of the rest;
I observe the slights and degradations cast by arrogant persons upon
    laborers, the poor, and upon negroes, and the like;
All these—All the meanness and agony without end, I sitting, look out
    upon,
See, hear, and am silent.

I want to see you,
Meet you,
Awkwardly introduce myself to you,
I want to love you,
I just want you to be here right now.

You are my reason for living.
The flutter of a passing glance and soft laughter fills all existence with meaning.
No amount of writing can make the past.
Crystal ***** fail at a future.
This moment, right now, is our treasure that burns brightest.
You are my reason for living!
As this moment, we are connected in way that surpasses all time and understanding.
Nothing matters more than the joy you make me feel.
Leave this moment to flutter with the past, but leave with the knowledge that you are loved. I love you.
Make every meeting (first or last) the most important moment in your life and you will fill you life with true happiness.

Waking to stumble forward reluctantly.
Sitting and talking away the hours.
Stepping backward to slumber.
Existing so I can exist.
True Sadness
When you find yourself in a life not your own; Break Away.

— The End —
