Writes..."The Return Of "Poe""

"i've got no illusions about why i've returned like the prodigal son. i could say i came back because i missed my friends or because i liked the area where i had been; i could even say it was because i'd been there so long home didn't feel like home anymore but the truth is i only came back for one reason. i came back because i needed to look into a pair of green eyes...and have those green eyes tell me that now i was back where i belonged."

"we grew in age—and love—together—
roaming the forest, and the wild;
my breast her shield in wintry weather—
and, when the friendly sunshine smiled.
and she would mark the opening skies,
i saw no heaven—but in her eyes."

- edgar allan poe

    But turned on me her quiet eye!

    Thank you for this...
