"the moon did not have to be full for us to love it" is the first tattoo I ever got when I was 18, on my upper back! Love Buddy Wakefield so much! Beautiful!

This poem was given to me in high school and even after I had forgotten all the words and even who wrote it, it's message stuck with me. I'm so happy to have found it again.
