I am a hero to some, a villain to others. A friend and an enemy, all in one breath.
I am a hero to some, a villain to others. A friend and an enemy, all in one breath.
Good, bad, and ugly, we have all been given a legacy. It is up to us to decide what pieces, if any, are worthy of handing down…

Beneath the black umbrella tops
their hearts beat in time
with each and every falling drop
of rain against the pine.
