Favorite Quote:
“I exist not to be loved and admired, but to love and act. It is not the duty of those around me to love me. Rather, it is my duty to be concerned about the world, about man.” - Janusz Korczak


The moment
When your life flashes before you
Do you then realize what you've missed out on in life
Do you then realize who your true friends were
They didn't leave you behind
Every time you walked
Or totally ignore you to stare at their boyfriend
Though you get the whole boyfriend girlfriend thing
You shouldn't have to feel like a third wheel
Let alone a burden
The moment when your life comes to an end
Do you then realize you never really lived
Do you then realize how scare you were to open up
To give someone your heart
And let alone
Fall in love
The moment whe you time to go arrives
Do you realize that no one will miss you
The moment
