Children Quote by Criss Copp

“I breathe her in deeply, before I begin my retraction. I hope nobody noticed that… my daughter’s in tears, and I took a two second daddy time to suck in the feminine smells of a woman I just shot down, but whose body I’m at the same time craving. Saxon, Falling in Silence” quote by Criss Copp
