I miss the days of not caring, I miss those happy nights, but most of all I miss you smiling under the starlight.

I believe. It gives me hope. And what is hope If not the string That pulls you through life?

I don’t have the capacity, the time or the motivation, So what am I to do? I like the comfort of familiarity and routine, but i also want new, So what am I to do? Excuses, excuses, excuses They materialise like bruises They come and go Like flakes of snow Tossing , turning in my sleep And still the answer to my question Has yet to emerge from the deep, Maybe it’s because it’s not truly what I seek. What I seek are in fact Excuses, excuses, and more excuses So what am I to do?

What am I to do?
We don’t get to be young, We need to grow old, We need to make choices We need to go places, and make sacrifices. Life is not easy or constant, Life is a path and not a contest, Comparing yourself to everyone else Is simple to do but bad for your health. We don’t get to have fun, We need to come undone, We need to stop smiling, laughing and crying. Life is a lie with one sole purpose, Which has yet to rise to the surface “You don’t get to be young, you need to grow old” This is what my mom believes, But frankly this idea is meant to deceive. If we don’t live now, We could just say “ciao” to all our specialties, And get drowned in legacies, Without finding any remedies to our promised infancies.
