If you want to stop time,
kiss and if you want to
travel in time, read and
if you want to escape time,
embrace music , and if
you want to feel time,
write and to release time,
breathe.

Learn to love without
condition, talk without
bad intention, give
without any reason and
most of all, care for
people without any
explanation.

Don't think about what
can happen in a month,
don't think about what
can happen in a year,
but focus on the 24
hours in front of you
and do what you can
to get closer to where
you want to be

Don't look for things
you aren't ready to find
and never accept anything
less than you deserve
and remember, you teach
people how to treat you
and every level of life
will demand a different
version of you and things
are as they are and we
suffer because we
imagined different, so let
it hurt, let it bleed, let it
heal, and let it go.

I wear this costume you
provide
And recite the script you
wrote.
I shove myself aside
to live in the shadows of
this person you created.
I live this lie daily.
With no breaks in character.
Have I pleased you yet?
Are you satisfied with
my performance?
Now that I've changed myself
for your enjoyment,
do you love me?
Because I'm *******
dying.
