Re: Lila or Lilah?
in reply to a message by *Brogan*
Usually I detest extra letters.
But in this case I like Lilah, b/c it could be seen as a short form of Delilah. I also think the pronunciation "lie-la" is evident with the Lilah spelling.
"You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams."
