\&quot;either write something worth reading or do something worth writing. -Benjamin Franklin<br /> <br /> \&quot;If columbus would have turned back, no one would have blamed him. No one would have remembered him either.\&quot; <br /> <br /> \&quot;If music be the food of love, play on.\&quot;


How can something you're supposed to have outgrown,
haunt you everyday,
with the knowingness of dereliction?
Just because it was from my childhood,makes it childish?
Than if i have outgrown it,
why are my best moments and memories,
from my entire life,
cemented in those walls?
