You don't understand


I write because you can not judge me based on a Goddess like body style. I write because you can not judge me because of my girl next door personality. I write because fire, passion, and romance should never be lost. I write because I don't have to try to be your Barbie Doll. I write because you say my Romeo is a jester, and when I write you open your eyes and see. I write because you can't see the beauty in a single beat up white rose. I write because you don't see the perfection in a babies eye lash. I write because you don't understand the elegance in a butterfly. Most of all I write for those who need a kind word. I write for those who need to be loved.
