Analysis of Personal Quotes
My ghostly white room often fills with shadows
Silver moon, stolen castle. The knights blue and bold
Julie Florida mixes with Rosewood and it's mist flows down the cheek
Do not wake me up to nothing familiar
Falling rain is the liquifaction of emotions
Mellow meloncholy opportunity carving rivulets into the mind
The date of saints and potent petals cures only true cupids
Consumes the rest
Silvery shells and sacred swords sponge admiration
Simple sucklings and silent someone's soak adoration
Pavane soothes the beast and
searches the soul
I feel high deep blue sky puppy me kitty eyes
Dancing drains the bath that breeds
malaria of the mind
Our human bellies often steam with regret when gorging on grief
