Like indistinct windows of a passing train,
Shifting my eyes to keep up with the stories,
Stories and people in each window,
Life passes me like the blurred train,
I am afraid I'll miss it, not fast enough to keep up.  

Once every now and then this feeling creeps in,
That I'm not good enough, may be I don't belong,
On days I soar higher than the clouds,
It comes down to my abilities and limitations,
And my fear that I don't know enough.

When I soar I remember the feeling,
Like I'm invincible and can do anything,
More importantly though, I feel my existence is justified,
People in my life with their kindness and affection,
Make me feel loved.

I forget that often, that I am loved,
Trapping myself in a bubble of misery,
Chained to the burden of my fears and failures,
Then out of nowhere you come along and carry the whole of me,
With my good and bad, I fly again in your love.

Shivers ran down my spine,
As I heard the song play,
Goosebumps tingled on my skin,
With the crowd we sway,
In the euphoria of having you besides,
Dancing I want the night to stay,
Have I gone mad?
So this is pure ecstasy

We are all the same space dust.
Millennia after we are gone,
Our light, will keep shining,
Travelling on and on, when some day,
We may be seen in another world,
As the stars we are.

Standing in the shadows,
Waiting for your chance,
Life will pass you by.

Like occasionally mine does,
As I lay waiting to wake beside you.

I quit smoking,
I learned to live without you.

But I still love you both.

After every time spent together,
We part to go about our lives,
As you walk towards that door
I hope you'll look back
And hear my eyes say:
STAY.

I can now accept
There are things I cannot do,
It puts into perspective what I can do,
And it guides me to my future
Where I can be happy.
