right now
this life
it's all i have
this isn't a movie
no soundtrack in the backround
no perfectly played lines
i'm just me
and you're just you
can you accept that

can you accept
that i can't wait for you
that my heart can't streach far enough
to reach from summer to summer
there'll be wear and tear
i'm not so sure i'm strong enough
and i'm not so sure
my heart can take another disappointment
another heartache.

a guarantee
isn't something you can give me
but it's the one thing that i need
it's the one perfect line
i need to hear

this isn't a hollywood ending
the girl
and
the guy
don't always find each other
sometimes were left in the dark
arms streatched
waiting to hear our soundtrack kick in

My friend, I'm quickly becoming a big fan of your work!!  No, life rarely holds that kind of Hollywood type ending, but the spirit we keep inside sees us through somehow, doesn't it??  I wish you the best...~S~

Brilliant!  I know this all too well...all too well!  Life is too real to afford a soundtrack...that's why I listen to my music full blast!  Lovely write!

Brutaly honest, everything can not be scripted perfectly and that embrace is not always perfect.
Great write.
I love the truth in it.

Tomorrow comes for those who fear it.
Today never ends for those who live it.

I almost feel I shouldn't have read this...you take the reader right into your intimate thoughts, very effectively.

waiting to hear our soundtrack kick in

I'm in all at the open raw honesty of this, seeps right to the bone, and words like mature, respect, common sense and fairness reach me through your words...
