Many people have different perspective of life
Many dreams and visions which most probably turn out to be a lie
Before I die want to live
Live to inspire lives
Live to be the voice of the less fortunate in the society
Live to be myself
Live to be the background voice which crusades for peace, love, and joy
Live and never say goodbye to my loved ones

Before I die…
I want to be brave enough
Be brave enough to face my fears
Be brave enough to stand by the truth even though it hurts
Be brave enough to tell others their wrongs even though they may end hating me
Be brave enough to face all my problems instead of walking away from them
Be brave enough to stand before a crowd and have no stage fright
Be brave enough to think out loud and know that my opinion matters

Before I die…
I want to experience true love
Many people see the end of the relationship before it even begins


Many people break up for the fear of being heart broken
Many people say that true love exist but they never go a notch higher to search for it
Before I die I want to experience true love
I want to really know if the love between Romeo and Juliet ever existed or was it just a fiction
I want to know if you can ever love a person so much that you can’t watch them suffer
I want to know if the phrase loving you till death do as apart is only a phrase used at the altar to impress the audience or is it there in real life.
Before I die I want to know if true love really exists

Before I die …
I want to stay awake
Stay awake so that I may see what others don’t see while they are asleep
Stay awake so that I may explore the wonders of this world
Stay awake so that I may watch every moment pass
Stay awake so as to secure my future
I don’t want to take a nap so that I may dream, I want to dream while am awake
I want to stay awake so as to see the world from a different perspective not as others see it
Before I die I want to stay awake.
