The moment you feel like giving up, just remember why you held on for so long.
Think of the reasons you are still here, even after everything you've had to deal with.
Think of the people you love, regardless if they love you in return.
Think of me, think of how I need you, think of how broken my heart would be if you were to ever leave me.
As midnight draws near, I find myself not sleeping, yet-- still dreaming. Of sleepless nights spent talking with you, of days not long enough for everything we wanted to do, of jokes we played, of all the memories we made... I'm still dreaming, dreaming of you. As morning nears my dreams continue on, even as I make my way to my window. Peering out into the darkness of night I wonder, where you are. Are you in the stars, giving me hope? Maybe the cold wind, passing right through me. Maybe you're in the rain, falling gently from heaven. Or maybe you're not there at all.
As time seems to go on, without stopping or slowing, I miss you more. Nearly a year has passed. While everyday I've been thinking of all the things I said I wished I hadn't, but more of the things I never said that I wish I had.
I find myself wishing you were here, yet glad you're not. I will always want you with me, by my side, my best friend, my sister, my angel. Still, I hope you're happy now, and your happiness is what keeps me going. It's why I hold to our deal, it's why I've held on for so long.
You havn't let me down, you havn't abandoned me, and I know you are still here for me whenever I need you. You promised you wouldnt leave me... and you havn't, not really. Cause every night I cry myself to sleep, I know you're there, and I love you more than gummy bears.
It's hard to live without regrets. To live your life completely and say you are happy about everything that ever happened. To say you wouldnt want a chance to go back and do anything over. But the easiest way I can think of to make it so you dont have as many regrets it to say the things you feel. The most important things are the hardest to say. There are the things you get ashamed of because words dimisnish them. But it's more than that. The most important things lie too close to where ever your secret heart is buried. Don't let what's in your heart stay a secret. Don't be afraid to love.
I was afraid to love, because I was afraid to lose the one I loved. But, without loving, I lost them before I ever had the chance to have them. I was afraid to say the things I wanted to say most, I was afraid to show them who I could be, I was afraid to let myself be happy. I was afraid to look into their eyes and let them see the real me. When I shouldnt have been afraid at all.
I'm done being afraid, and now I've found the most amazing feeling in the world. Look into someones eyes, someone you really care about, really look at them. Their face, their eyes, take them in. Breathe their breath into your lungs at the moment when they are most happy and I promise you, I swear you to, you'll never see anything more beautiful than the expression on their face, or the one on yours. I have never seen or felt anything more amazing than seeing someone I love being happy. Seeing their smile, hearing their laugh, just knowing that for atleast one moment that I was with them, they were happy.
Don't ever miss the chance to make someone happy. To make someone smile. Don't ever miss a chance you'll get to tell someone you love them, for it just may be the last smile, the last moment, the last time you ever get to say, "I love you."
Ev'rything went wrong
And the whole day long
I'd feel so blue
For the longest while
I forgot to smile
Then I met you
Now that my blue days have passed
Now that I've found you at last
I'll be loving you, always
With a love that's true, always
When the things you've planned
Need a helping hand
I will understand
Always, always
Days may not be fair, always
That's when I'll be there, always
Not for just an hour
Not for just a day
Not for just a year
But always
[2]
Dreams will all come true
Growing old with you
And time will fly
Caring each day more
Than the day before
Till spring rolls by
Then when the springtme has gone
Then will my love linger on
*To the memory of all those who I loved and who, before I could tell them I loved them, went away.*
