Out of all the souls around
That's willing to take the sword from your hand
You'll never really know who's who or not.

I can never forget the day
When we started talking, knowing each other,
Getting along, laughing together
At things that didn't even make sense.

Your smile, your mild laughter
That beautiful shine in your eyes,
The way you just listened to me closer
As I told you everything that's in my mind.

Your silence when you rested your eyes on mine
When you chose not to speak, the chill had to reside
And I know, there was something I got to do
To be myself more when things were just new.

When you simply threw that melting stare
At my eyes, at my threads, at me when with you
I can't help but ask myself what could be so wrong
When it just feels so right whenever I see you.

And on that very moment when I realized
That nothing has ever caught me this way
We began as strangers, but not when together
'Cause with you is where I want to stay.

And again, he played with his words
And again, I wished they were mine
And again, I said with a curse
Again, it was never mine to mind.

And again, he proceeded with charm
And again, I would see him around
And again, there's nothing I could do
*Again, how do I not want you?

Heal me with your words that lather
Untangle the strings I attached to your heart
Dun me until you see me no longer
Upon your feet, as I tear apart
But hear my words as they sound louder:



"                                                "



even from the start.

Be
Be the reason why people smile
Be the apple of their weary eyes
Be the sunshine through their rain
Be the hand to help them up again
Be the hope when they're upset
Be the dream they wish to get
Be the friend whom they can call
Be the one to have when they lose it all.

Hang on, young lady, and keep your head up high
Times do get rough, but someday you'll know why,
When your dreams seem impossible, trust your own fate
It always takes time if you aim to end up great.

Hang on, young lady, and keep that pretty smile
Forget your troubles and your cares even just for a while,
They may not know how hard you try to keep yourself alive
But don't forget that you're still worth it, for as long as you strive.

Hang on, young lady, and don't you ever quit on life
Love for happiness, speak the truth and stay away from strife,
Learn to dance under the rain when no one keeps you warm
Feel the chill, forget the gripe; to enjoy the harm does no harm.

Hang on, young lady, 'cause your poem doesn't just end here
Endings are sad, but know that it's time to finally end your fear,
When one thing ends, another then begins, that's what we all know
But endings are good, just be brave enough to start another awesome show.

It's okay to sometimes cry,
'Cause it's when we know we're alive.
When the wind blows at night,
and we silently watch the stars shine,
we think we're lonely when everyone's alright,
but we don't even seem to realize,
that even the brightest sparks in the sky,
were once the saddest wishes of those eyes,
who wished they were never made to cry.
