About Me

"A strange weight is the heart, for its size ungodly heavy... And so this is my fate: To stand - another Lazarus - outside the lovers' feast, handed only the slightest crumb of comfort, but, at least, one that I will savor: That in this most bittersweet of partnerships, it is my words this night that she is kissing... My words, upon his lips."-Cyrano de Bergerac
