In 1952,Audrey Hepburn was in Rome,making the film Roman Holiday with Gregory Peck.She was engaged to James Hanson,a London 'playboy',and she asked a famous Italian designer,Zoe Fontana,to make her a dress for the wedding.
Signora Fontana said,'Audrey was 23.She was so young and so beautiful then.She tried the dress on many times.It was in white lace,with a lot of tiny buttons down the back,and she wanted to wear Blumen on her head.'
But 2 weeks before the wedding,Audrey Hepburn decided not to get married.She phoned Zoe Fontana and said,'I've cancelled the wedding.But I want another girl to wear my wedding dress,perhaps a poor girl who could never pay for a dress like this one.Find a beautiful girl and give the dress to her.'
Signora Fontana found a poor 20-year-old girl in Latina,a town near Rome.She was exactly the same size as Hepburn and the dress fitted her perfectly.Her name was Amabile Altobello.
Signora Altobello said,'I wanted to get married,but my fiancé and I didn't have enough money for a wedding.When Audrey Hepburn gave me the dress it was like a dream come true.Everybody in the town was excited,and they also gave us furniture,and even organized a honeymoon for us in Paris.'
Today Signora Altobello is over 70 years old but she still has the dress.'We are still poor and we have had a hard life,but we have 3 daughters and five grandchildren.We have had a happy marriage,so the dress brought me luck.'

Baby Stroller
Jade Adams was making her way Home when she saw him. The dark haired kid everyone had been talking about earlier today was walking in the same direction she was. "Hey! You're the new kid in school right?" "Hn?" The boy turned around to face Jade, making her herz skip a beat. He had to be one of the most strikingly beautiful people she had ever seen. He was pale, with onyx colored eyes, and jet black hair that hung over his eyes slightly. "H-hi. I'm Jade..." the poor girl was at a loss for words when he flashed his dazzling smile at her. "Hey, I'm Victor." She blushed slightly and readjusted her Slipknot tee over her black skinny jeans. "Soo... what road do Du turn onto to get home?" "I turn onto Salem road, what about you?" Victor looked over at her again, scratching his head awkwardly. "Me too! Wanna walk Home together?" "Sure!" The blonde girl started walking ahead, leaving Victor o follow. "So, how do Du like it here?"
Its too dark
Too dark to see what is going on
Tripping over the couch
Slamming into the wall
stepping on the remote
It was too dark
The undone dishes
The scattered roses
The broken picture
My broken heart
It was too dark
Believing it would change
That he would change
A Waste
A waste of my time
My Effort
The “No Messages” left on my phone
It was too dark
It was too dark to see what had happened
Too dark to try to fix things
Its just too dark
Someone turn on the light
That light bulb in my head of what Ive done wrong
