Tonight's the night Tonight's the night we dance, as we haven't before We dance together, alone together We dance under the sky We dance to the songs we dare call "ours" Tonight we believe in each other and nothing else Tonight we forget everything else Forget our youth Forget the impossible Forget the worries of the past We look to the stars, as they bring tears to our eyes We look to the future, as it brings a smile to our faces We look to one another, as we bring warmth to our hearts Tonight we are together And that is all that matters

Tonight, Tonight
Once upon a time My world was a dark hellish place where no light existed a veil of woe obscured my vision and all I that was visible was pain. I walked with my head bowed, eyes perpetually locked with the ground I began to suffocate The air of that place was too heavy with sorrow for my lungs and just as that dark, depressing place seemed to grow even darker, as the last bit of will fled my body the horizon was broken by the singular first ray of sun and for the first time in what seemed forever the world was illuminated for the first time in what seemed forever I saw the beauty of it all. Like the early morning dew, the sun burned off all of my grievances leaving me free of the burdens of that place allowing me to move on. Even now the sun doesn't always shine but these days the night has moonlight and stars

Moonlight and Stars
you are crazy and energetic full of life and song you know what real sorrow is to want to never see tomorrow you felt that long ago and yet you've seen today and by the means of true sorrow you also know the feeling of true joy when it comes to you you burn like a fire, and I like a cold beggar are drawn to it you are beautiful and when I say beautiful, I don't mean attractive (but that too) but I mean beauty, a feeling that when I look at you I look upon one of the wonders of nature, something wonderful and rare, you are you you are

Beautiful
Though the sun might not always shine, and the night may grow dark and cold, remember that you don’t stand alone. Remember that you need not face the challenges of life without help. Remember that we are here, and together we will, together we will move forward, together we will find strength, together we will find the dawn.

Together
There are two types of secrets in this world. There are secrets of the mouth, simple things like gossip, such as who likes who. Unimportant things that once a person learns, it begs to be let out and passed to the next person. Then there are the secrets of the heart, the things that people keep to themselves, ones that weigh them down. They can’t share for fear, or pride, or shame, or some combination there in. These secrets are the ones that you sometimes want to say, but when you try they stick in your throat like a bitter poison. They are like stones within your heart, turning it cold. Once they've formed they’re hard to get rid of. It’s better to deal with them before they form, spit the poison out instead of consuming it, though it is much harder to do. We crave the secrets in our heart, they’re the ones that no one knows and no one could begin to guess. They’re what makes us, us. This craving will **** you if you let it, don’t. I urge you to at least try and give one up, just one, to anyone you wish. Take that stone out of your heart and throw it away. Let each step be lighter.

Stones
In the summer, I felt my heart ablaze, the world was full of life, the air was full of song, then came the wind of fall, the leaves changed, the air grew crisp and cold, I felt my fire die, and the world with me fell, the winter came on fast ready to **** my fire receded till it was just an ember, struggling in the cold. I listened to the world, felt the stillness of it all, I thought of how the warmth had fled, how the life was gone and as I sat, I counted the stars above my snow choked world, and found there was just as many in the sky, and as I sat, I counted the sounds I could here in the stillness and heard all but one, for my own voice shattered in despair chose to not rise up and join the chorus that is the world floating in the air, and as sat in my own pool of grief, I thought of things, not as they seem, but as they are, and as I sat I felt my ember kindle and into a mighty blaze it did roar, till I found the cold and dark just as bright and warm as any day of that summer for which I had mourned

I was Not too long ago Tired Tired of being sad Tired of being alone Tired of pretending Tired of being angry Tired of being stuck Tired of needing help Tired of remembering Tired of being different Tired of missing out Tired of feeling forgotten Tired of wishing to start over Tired of feeling aimless Tired of feeling worthless Tired of hating myself Tired of all my problems Tired of feeling like it was all my fault Tired of dreaming dreams that would never pass But most of all I was Tired of being Tired And then you came into my life And I became awake
