The time is now
In its pull
In each other's arms

The time is now
Overjoyed and thankful
Brave enough
As brave can be

The time is now
A new beginning
We'll go far

The time is now
We cannot miss
Before the faint hum of big forever
Occasionally
Our
Paths cross,
After numerous
Miles

She
Doesn't
Know,
I'm in heaven
When
She
Smiles

Can you hear the sound of nothing?
Floating over your spine,creeping
It hovers like love
Sings in the sky like a dove

Does nothing fulfill your desires?
Is just the promise enough?
A covenant of screeching tires
And flowers shatteringly though

Will you let me wrap you in it up?
Our bodies hid under the forest floor
Our stomachs filled with death cup
We died without a single sore

Because we'd rather wilt
Than keep our union split
In the fault of knuckles thigtening on the hilt
They,who force their threats to hit



But I want You to know that i would rather die than live without your kiss!
I'm afraid of failure
Of becoming a burden
But above all, I'm afraid
Of hurting the ones I love
And ending up alone...

Yet I'm here, I've shown
In the face of my demons
And screamed at them
That they'll never take
The very best of me

So I may not be fearless
I'm quite fine with that
For I'm brave
I never regarded myself as the courageous type... until the day I realized that being brave doesn't mean being fearless. Being brave means facing your fears in order to do what you must.
