Life is never guaranteed. Faith in the idea of tomorrow is all we have to carry us each day. There are no promises, just hope. Life is taken swiftly from us like sunbeams on a cloudy day. You cherish those small moments. The clarity of those moments, that feeling of pure light, is precious. Even in death, the essence of life surrounds all of us. In the light breeze in the air, the warmth in each hug, the honestly flowing through each tear. May there be a God, a heaven, a hell, what have you, there is no doubt that this life is more than the science of human existence. We carry too much love, too much depth, and far too much soul for a single explanation. We are all who we are and that is beautiful. Let us allow this day we have in our hands to flourish into a life we only dreamed we could have. Let us love with no hesitation and live with no regrets. Let us be before this life passes and we become what could have been. The past is always there, full of memories, good and bad, highs and lows,  laughter and sorrow. Cherish these memories and carry them with you through your days to come. Hold dear the ones you love and find forgiveness for those who have wronged you. Laugh until you cry and cry until you find peace. Let us just live, free.
I lost my Aunt Friday and wrote this while sitting around my family, after the funeral,as they laugh and tell stories.

Time is not given
It's stolen in each moment
Making memories of shadowed nights
Essences of impulse and laughter 
Lacing through each hole
Although the blossoms of life may not get the chance to bloom, 
Heavy clouds keeping them from life, 
Our worlds collided
With forces of destined allies
Affinity roping our universe into orbit
In each small moment of nostalgia
We will now carry you dear friend
In our life, our loss, and our love.
I wrote this for my friend Mikey who passed just before Christmas in a car accident. Losing a friend is unlike any feeling I had ever had.

You have a beauty I cannot deny
and a charm that poisons all who you meet.

Me
I'm a *******. A *** of gold. You can say that I'm young or simply just cold. I'm a killer, a saver, a reckless heart breaker. I love from my soul and only hate the haters. I can only be me so don't be surprised, the moment you see the great mind behind these sly eyes.

I remember those little notes we wrote
The tiny pieces of our hearts that were scattered across our life
I remember the way we would laugh at nothing
Tears welling in our eyes because our bodies couldn't absorb all the happiness we had inside
I remember the nights we would lay together
Sharing with one another what we
would never reveal to the world 
I remember holding hands in the car
From a trip down the road to the countryside of another place
I remember all of our silly moments, our shared tears,
and those little things that pulled our big worlds together. 
I remember everyday how easy it is to remember you.
And how impossible the task of forgetting you will be.
