Nothing in life is guaranteed You can't be afraid of chance though Sometimes life will call your bluff Love and happiness allow us to grow Perhaps loving is a mistake But life isn't about faking Give love and life more than just a glance The risk really is worth taking Better to be true to your heart Then to stand behind in shadows and never try Much rather cry from a heartache Then to cry because to myself I told a lie So... Take the chance Take it right along with me We might fall flat on our face--yes Then again we could fly free You feel this connection too I hear what you do not say So extend your hand and trust me Together...we'll find the way It may turn out that friends Is what were meant to be Then again...perhaps there's more Only by taking the chance...will we ever see Amy M. Kennedy "fate and destiny can only take you so far-- the rest is entirely up to you" ~me~ [This message has been edited by Aimster (edited 03-02-2001).] |

I really like this poem. It has been a while since I have been online, so I was glad to find some good poetry to read when I came BACK. |

I have had my share of smashed face mornings but I still find it hard not to try and find that one that will forever make me smile. Wonderful write from you and a very good message to pass on. Life is always about taking chances so they might as well be the ones we choose rather than the ones forced upon us. Loved the read. |

Like the way you've expressed the message, so very true cos I've found out the hard way. The world doesn't stop for you, but you can stop for the world. |
