kissing wanted slap
Was true love when you wanted to slap someone and kiss him madly at the same time?
life long knows
But I know that I'm not who I was supposed to be. Who I could have been. And I know it's because I was too afraid for too long.
thinking secret needs
It is absolutely okay with me if you need to keep some secrets. I've been thinking about this and I decided that a best friend is someone who, when they don't understand, they still understand.

Music links us humans, heart to heart...Across time and space, and life and death.
both consider cover covers girl hair match motion natural outdoor paperback single
There was a mission: To match the cover of 'Extraordinary' to the cover of the paperback 'Impossible,' which was commercially successful. Consider the outdoor natural setting, the single girl in motion with her hair blowing, and the cursive font used for the title; both covers have these in common.

I used to want covers that represented the book's contents very closely and were also pretty. Many folks automatically believe that this is what makes a good cover.
