Try* not to let me down,
But climb yourself up,
The ladder reaches the clouds.

Though the clouds,
We believe we cannot attain,
With all our might may we try.

I can tell you this right now,
If you let me hang on your leg,
You'll never reach the 1000th step.

Leave me behind for now,
When you end up on a wide enough step,
Sit and wait for me.

I'll catch up,
Sooner rather than later,
And I'll let you take hold of my foot.
                        *If you get tired..

You and I,
Nothing more would it take
To defy the world,
To brighten the stars,
To freshen the earth.

Oh please,
Lets not result to posies.

Never promise me forever,
Promise me today.
Don't tell me you'll always be,
Because what'll you do when things go astray?
Oh, sorry, I never meant to hurt you,
Are you sure you'll be okay?
I asure you, I'll be fine,
I never promised a day more than today.
I knew not to guarantee, what I had yet seen,
As I knew it would someday lead to my dismay.

You, the best of my friends,
are the definition of audacious.
Be bold, take risks, you might take notice..
Yet again maybe not.
Willing, I am, to show you love,
But would you ever really know?
Brash, you may be.
I feel for you more than you surmise.
Tell me again you love me.
Tell me again you hate me.
I'd like to say I only want to you to be happy,
But would that be in true honesty?

Fear is not pertinent,
Fear is not relevant,
Fear has no particular matter,
Fear is not suitable, fit or apt,
To the fearless, the bold,
And the brave,
To the gutsy, the intrepid,
And the valiant.
To the fickle, the false,
And the hypocritical,
Because no one is,
Deep down, in true honesty,
Fearless.

Off to make ends meet.
And prevent the ends
of the things we'd rather keep around.

Off she goes once again,
But only to make sure she'll be coming back.
Off she goes another time,
Making sure she'll see the days far from now.
Off she goes once more,
Keeping true to her words,
Proving to us furthermore,
That she'll do anything for us.
Off she goes again and again,
Preventing the extremities of life.

Front line:
Keep your head up.
Tuesday:
Don't forget who knows.
June:
It's never too late to know what you should have known before.
Take 10:
Stop being so drastic.
Before the end:
Keep calm and quit giving a ****.
Bottom line:
You should have known before.

You
Of all the things you do..
The one thing you do best,
You don't even notice you're doing,
Of all the things you do..
The thing you do worst,
Is the same thing you do best.
Of all the things you do..
The thing you do most,
You ******* give a care.
Of all the things you do..
The thing you'll do till you die,
Is not give a *****.
