 AN INNATE NEED TO IMPALE

A BREATHLESS DESIRE

Dear Boni

Intense right enough only thing I would change is to lower your caps ... simply if the words dont say it (and yours do immensely well) caps wont either ... brilliant write but sorry huni hate the caps but just my opinion lol and we all have them eh ? smile love JayCe x x x ("Quote:-For every beauty there is an eye somewhere to see it.
