From the winds of pain
come the tears of truth
rolling in on the ties
unseen eyes holding the light

Forever  young  the stars
bleeding me the colors
of my sanity only to
be overcome by my serenity

look upon with elegy
only to see the free one
smiling back at me form
the afterlife of it all
SWEETHEART, do not love too long:
I loved long and long,
And grew to be out of fashion
Like an old song.
All through the years of our youth
Neither could have known
Their own thought from the other's,
We were so much at one.
But O, in a minute she changed --
O do not love too long,
Or you will grow out of fashion
Like an old song.

like fools, we dove into the shallow end.
head first. blind to the danger.
the jump itself was bliss.

fingers interlocked, laughter pouring from our mouths,
eyes bewitched and sparkling naively.
we were childlike. godlike. untouchable.

however our euphoria ended abruptly
at the reality of the encroaching cement bottom -
awaiting our skulls

but by the time we realized what was happening
it was too late.
you cannot stop gravity.

the smiles faded from our mouths.
and we went down,
down, down.

no hope for air.
no flailing limbs.
no final breath.

not a chance at revival.

we were dead on impact.

we never got to swim.

before i loved you
you were winter

you've thawed now,
turning to early spring

together we melt -
into sweet summertime

each day, we fall
deeper in love

I want to be remembered by a complete stranger, because I did something randomly and significantly that he or she witnessed or was a part of.

I want to be the person whose shoulder people know they can cry on.

I want to be somebody who made a difference in some other persons life.

I want to be the person who laughs everyday.

I want to be a blessing.

I want to be a leader.

I want to be remembered.

I want to be defined as a good, unusual, and unique person.

I want to be remembered for starting a movement that affects a lot of people in a positive way.

I want be recognized for my intelligence, among other things in relation to that.

I want to be the person that people come to for answers.

I want to be the person that someone can truly rely on.

I want to be 5'9".

I want to be irreplaceable.

There are many things that people 'want'. Money, jobs, a home, lovers, life, possessions, miracles. In this case I would say that only 50% at most would get what they wanted. But when you want something that requires a little thought or material effort on you're part...well that's when things that you want to happen start happening. Only you can change you. Only you can make a difference in that department. Respect it. It is one of the few things in life that you have absolute and awe inspiring power over.

They say money can only take you so far.
It can buy you all the biggest houses and fastest cars.
But can money buy you a spot in a person heart.
Can money buy you that special moment when you lost in the stars trying to hide the fact you havent ate in days so you dont starve
Can money bring back the ones you lost in the past.
Money can take away the bullets that went throught the dash and left my neice in memories.
No! Money just cash. Ment to get spent im talking Blowing Money Fast.
So think twice before you wish about that bank full of cash!
