Write me into 1 of your stories 

If you Dare

So a while from now

Enabled against our friends.

Stranded to the aknowledged.
Erratic
Erased love between two people.

A pool of water does not always reflect the scum at the bottom.
The book cover on the shelf, mirrors not the word's inside.
This image portrayed is harder than the marshmello interior.

in reference to time
The events as portrayed
or what they call to mind

Focused on tomorrow,
the picture is lame
Its history frozen
—the future unframed
