ECSTASYI sit here and think I'm sitting; where have I been? Where have I gone? Breathe deeply, and I'm nothing; I am everything, my god, my only king. | 1 View added 1 month ago | Rating |
OUTLAWI hope to find redemption, but outlaws never die looking for the truth hidden behind every stranger's eyes. I was told never to go down that road that holds so many stories of the unknown. The spiders are twenty feet tall. I'm an outlaw who can not... | 18 Views added 1 month ago | Rating |
