We stopped dreaming Why is it with everything we as humans are surrounded by we stopped dreaming We reached for the heavens when we were told it wasn't possible and we made it happen We reached for the depths of the oceans to explore and discover things never seen before We constantly grew as a race to become a more powerful race We keep each other so distracted with technology, phones, television, radio, Facebook anything to keep us from seeing the beauty around us Do something go learn something new Why waste your one chance you have at life inside Go for a walk Go for a hike Go learn a new skill Get up and discover there are many things to see out there Even when surrounded by friends and family I often feel empty There isn't a connection anymore Everyone is too busy worried about the likes they got on Instagram, or Facebook or how many people they have as friends online Why not live in the now There are so many things that are going on around us that we are oblivious to This new attatchment to screens may make us more social online but has become the death of social life in the outside world The amount of people that yo could meet, conversate, indulge in new experiences with are endless Just really need to get out there and discover Discover something new it's something that will help make yourself more happy Think of it this way will you be more proud of the likes on Instagram Or will you proud of the amazing experience you had when that photo was taken

We do things that are unnecessary to show affection to one another It's so much better to just be open and straight to the point Cause every worthless word we get more far away Make every word you say count Let someone know how you feel about them In a sense it's a risk, but a risk is always worth taking if you've been thinking about it for a long time I'm all over the place here listen There will always be those butterflies in your stomach when you see her Those won't go away get used to them That's what I was told It always stressed me out telling someone how I felt about them I always asked the same questions What if they don't like me back? What if I lose the only relationship we have? What if they never want to see me again? It's hard making these decisions Never easy But doesn't mean I should not tell her and I will but first what I like about you I like that when we talk it feels like we've known each other our whole lives I can share my interests easily with you because I know you'll also like them I love you sense of humour I love every talent you have You look even more beautiful with glasses than any other girl I've seen and equally amazing without them Your wanderlust matches mine The stars above and the ocean below amaze you That sense is discovery and curiousness makes me want to go on a journey with you Aha oh man the first time I saw you My heart melted I had butterflies I want to tell you this in person I wanna be your perfect man But I don't know if I'm that guy And my lack of confidence won't let me fly So maybe someday I'll tell you but For now I'll enjoy your company and like you from afar until I'm ready to ask you out

Should I tell her how I really feel?
We do things that are unnecessary to show affection to one another It's so much better to just be open and straight to the point Cause every worthless word we get more far away Make every word you say count Let someone know how you feel about them In a sense it's a risk, but a risk is always worth taking if you've been thinking about it for a long time I'm all over the place here listen There will always be those butterflies in your stomach when you see her Those won't go away get used to them That's what I was told It always stressed me out telling someone how I felt about them I always asked the same questions What if they don't like me back?
