  • Poetry » Dramatic, General Re: graveyards and roses (me and you)

  • Short Story » Romantic, General Re: Voices IV: We miss you...

    Yay, Dusky, another Voices! I really love these pieces because she doesn't seem at all crazy; in fact, Jenn has so many conflicting emotions in her, just like any normal ...
