			<description>I write diary entries and rants a lot, so I am making this book as a place where I can post them. Keep in mind, in these writings, I'll frequently use coarse language, so if that offends you, I'd suggest you not to read them.

			<title>When She Lived</title>
			<description>	When beauty dwelled in all the oceans,	pleasing eyes with tidal motions,	she would stand beside the shore,	but oh the waters drowned her core.	When nature brightened days with breezes,	calming all with lovely eases,	she would feel a blitzing wind	against her face that thrashed her skin.	Amid a crow..</description>

			<title>When It Rains In Summer</title>
			<description>	Another day,	watching sprinkling rain	cascade upon summer's grass	as Earth fades	to a cloud of gray.	The sun's gleaming colors	vanish in the clouds,	dissipating to darkened hues	while dripping rain	taps against sunken ground.	I can't remember	why I'm crying this time,	if it's the burning scars	from..</description>

			<title>A Tear In Autumn</title>
			<description>	When she sheds a tear in autumn,	leaves crust away to ash ...	a lifeless wind chills the earth,	stealing dying leaves from	a longing tree,	and She ~&amp;nbsp;	amid her&amp;nbsp;loneliness&amp;nbsp;~&amp;nbsp;	sees&amp;nbsp;Him&amp;nbsp;in memories,	but his smile&amp;nbsp;	only drifts&amp;nbsp;to an&amp;nbsp;	evanescent dream.</description>
