My Hold
By LostButNeverFound PLATINUM
Phoenix, Arizona

From time to time I feel it slipping. And when it does I lose my balance. My focus becomes blurry, and I can't see why to continue. Sometimes I feel as if I can't even reach you...

Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it. Friends are like balloons: once you let them go, you can't get them back. So I'm gonna tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

Love is a theory that will cause you great pain, until you find a heart that wants the same as yours, then the theory turns into a dream and a dream becomes reality.
