You will never leave where you are, until you decide where you'd rather be.


Sing with me, that song we sang together
Breathe with me, like it’ll last forever
Dawn shifts to dusk
Without a clue
That we’re still here; knowing not what to do
You sleep--silent and still
So strong in the middle, so brave in the end
A year’s past,
Yet the memories last,
I could not bring myself to
Let go of a last laughing time we held
Where you were tired, just back from work
I came late, finishing up homework
Late night--last call
You were stuck, but who knows it all?
Breathing, not living
Two years past and you are still gone
And I’m wondering if you’re listening
As I listen to our song

What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

Don't let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

Dream like you will live forever, live like you will die today.

Wow, it flows very prettily! It sounds like a song! No criticism for this one, it's perfect. :)
