there are some kisses that I could have sworn it would never end. there are some hugs that I wish could stop time if only I just squeeze the person tight enough. there are some goodbyes I hope I'll never have to say, there are eulogies that I don't want to hear and there are songs that I don't ever want to end. I'm agnostic but sometimes I pray for the moon not to go down when I'm with you. I beg for it to hold on for at least a few more hours before dawn takes over but it never does. if there's one thing I've learned it's: no matter how much you beg, plead or promise happiness is always fleeting from our fingertips. happiness is never truly "yours", it is simply just your turn to smile. Ted made it rain for Robin, but here I am trying to stop time for you.
