Asked & Answered: If I were to die this minute, I would know why I was born
She should have known not to trust the sparkling summer snow; For it hardened into the ice that extinguished her fiery glow.

Just Because She's Dead
Darkness feeds on light That speckle of warmth and white that flushes out your blood And you are left with the warmth of your first kiss Lying in a pond on a warm summer day while cold rain nips at your skin So I looked for you in the night And you were laying on mountains Trying to soften the shivering ridges I traveled the world Looking for a mountain high enough to reach the stars And I lay atop you Tossing stars aside To make wishes come true While the cool grass tickled at the most sensitive part of my arms and feet You gently blew my hair and it whipped around me I sold my bus pass to a traveler to find the edges of your lips And I jumped and bounced into the softness of your skin I grabbed ahold onto the roots of your hair And swung myself Into the sea of stars A force so strong it knocked the wind out of my lungs So I took a big breath And was rewarded with clouds of daisies swimming through the galaxy like me Ah, my love You're physical form is no longer with me but I feel you in everything

you are a mountain with clouds of daisies
mind Unwanted All have them, Some are average Some are quite large, Some are from anger, Some are from depression, All bad thoughts can be helped, Help comes from you and others, Some are common anger , Some are unknown, And those are scary, But don’t be weary, But always know, People always care,

Unwanted mind
People have always told, Of their best feelings, But what are those feelings, Compared to others, Is it winning the lottery, Is it being in love, Or is it being loved, The question is a simple one, But it has many answers, Add your answers if its a humble one, The question is what is, The greatest feeling in the world?

The greatest question of all?
Life is like a game, There are few simple rules, As long as you try, Life will go by , Why because you tried, With all of your will, With will you will, Go far in the greatest game of all, Life.
