You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take Regret The feeling that makes your stomach ache Regret There’s no way to shake Regret You can try to change until you’re blue in the face Regret No steps back in time No second chances Regret Go with your gut No regrets Take that shot No regrets Be yourself No regrets Stand out proudly No regrets No hesitation no second-guessing go for it all No BS’ing Climb the mountain Take that homerun swing Just remember this one little thing No regrets Go big or go home In whatever you do Don’t let that feeling overcome you Because once you do it will hold on tightly It will weaken us all even the strong and mighty And so I leave you with this please don’t forget Live life to the fullest No regrets

Regret

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take Regret The feeling that makes your stomach ache Regret There’s no way to shake Regret You can try to change until you’re blue in the face Regret No steps back in time No second chances Regret Go with your gut No regrets Take that shot No regrets Be yourself No regrets Stand out proudly No regrets No hesitation no second-guessing go for it all No BS’ing Climb the mountain Take that homerun swing Just remember this one little thing No regrets Go big or go home In whatever you do Don’t let that feeling overcome you Because once you do it will hold on tightly It will weaken us all even the strong and mighty And so I leave you with this please don’t forget Live life to the fullest No regrets

It’s funny how quickly things can change I thought we were on the same page, but when I take a second look we weren’t even reading the same book Talk is cheap actions are priceless use me all up until I’m dead and lifeless because life is precious Love is a virus Infectious you love me now I wonder how I can’t comprehend it love is the drug and I’m chemically dependent. I know it’s wrong and I can’t defend it. But we can’t pretend it’s not true because it’s doing the same thing to me as it is to you And boo-hoo watch The lip quiver it’s raining tears now ***** cry me a river. It’s not you I blame myself I didn’t do nothing I sat there motionless like an elf on the shelf it’ll be a white Christmas you can Bank on that but it’ll be Without me and that’s a fact don’t get it twisted like I said I don’t blame you you got a ring and I gave you my heart but I was second-best so close yet worlds apart Treat life like a game with no restart. Just remember talk is cheap your actions are priceless you used me all up and now I’m dead Lifeless

Lost in time Don't know where I'm going Just like the wind through the trees I'm roaming Full of wonder Six feet under You only live once Clueless minded What will my purpose be Wonder what life has in store for me. Just go where ever it takes me Not trying to please So if you please Don't hate me For wondering

Today is a special day to show you I care You know me better than anyone You taught me that life isn’t fair You’re the reason I keep fighting You’re always there I say you care too much But I’m thankful you care After all if you didn't I wouldn’t be here at all You are the mother of all mothers You make me laugh You show me how to be a man To do things with class To have a mom like you that’s pretty badass Without you there is no me So you better believe When it comes to mothers You are second to none My mom truly is number one

Yes I have a disability. Does it define me? No! Yes I'm in a wheelchair . But I don't care. So why do you? Because I do things differently, Apparently that means I can't function in society? They say that my disability affects my ability. All my life people have told me that seeing is believing. But when it comes to me. Looks can be deceiving.

Been a long time now. Six grade in fact. Been along time now since anyone has had my back like you do. I know I can count on you Bro we've been through it all. Bad and good. When I needed someone you stood by me when no one else would. As the years pass I realize now. This is true. I am truly lucky to have a friend like you. As grown adults now. Nothing has changed except age. Friends like you are unlike any other. You're more than a friend. You're my brother I love you man.

How can time move so fast? Can’t believe this is happening. The thought of losing you is hard to grasp. Once so close. Now apart. If only this were a game. Wish we could restart. I can’t fight these feelings I can only remember the memories. Six months come and gone Hard to think the thought of moving on

Sitting here mind is blank? Like a painters canvas before it becomes a landscape. Wondering what it takes to be normal? What is normal? Who has the right define it? The reality is we each have our own way of life in which we live. We go out of our way to make sure we get rather than give. Yes I too am guilty of this. I am far from perfect. I’m forced to use that word again. Perfect. How can we say someone or something is perfect? Perfection is yet to be seen. Every flaw that made us unique has now become obscene. We laugh at our flaws as we try and fit in. There are so many problems with that last line, where to begin Maybe I’ll say it again. We laugh at our flaws as we try and fit in. We laugh at our peers . To avoid our fears of rejection As we strive for perfection our need becomes an imperfection. As we stand here our need for perfection takes over like infection.
