How long has it been?
Since I have seen you spin,
Since I have heard your laugh,
Or got in trouble with the school’s staff.
You were like my long lost twin.

 

But it’s been a while,
Since I have seen you smile,
Since we sang together,
Or ran around in beautiful weather.
But the distance is not just a mile.

 

It’s been years,
But there are never any less tears,
You left a hole growing all the time,
To me that is the biggest crime,
What happened was one of my biggest fears.

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don't worry be happy! :)

"I'd been wondering all this time, whether there's any meaning to a failed love. Is it something that will disappear the same as something that never existed. Now I know, there is meaning..there was a meaning...right here." – Takemoto [Honey and Clover]
