Life goes by so fast, time just marches on Long before we realise what we might lose, and that they are no longer playing our song We take things for granted, the people we see everyday Before we know it they are taken, and we are just blown away I try hard to live each day for the true gift it was meant to be Instead though I'm just as guilty as the rest, and it leaves me hurting Life goes as quickly as the passing of a season Time rearranges our lives, and we are left seeking the reason We wish we could rewind, but all of us know that is only a dream When we realise life has been robbed from us, we're left with an anger that screams What if there was a time machine, and one could go back in time, and do it all differently Would we then be happier, and would our hearts be more complete? These and more thoughts run randomly through my head Sometimes when I'm trying to sleep at night, and only end up tossing in my bed I know only one thing that I've learned in this life to be true We need to treasure each day, or else tomorrow we'll be left feeling blue With the ticking of the clock, day turns into night, and then night back into day The days pass into one another, and it's always going to be this way If we stop for a moment though, and hold on for a second longer to the love that we share We'll realise it doesn't matter the time we have with them, but more the people who it is that so willingly care "love is like a butterfly-- |

(big hugggsssssss) Despite the many tears I've went through in my childhood, I wouldn't change a thing, as I just wouldn't be the same person, and I would never have understood compassion and be just as selfish as many other people! (kiss on cheek) So I will just move on and admire and embrace each moment and love my loved ones with all my heart, sweet friend, may you cherish each day and hug the memories close to your heart, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Amy, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |
