Life as I know it
October 7, 2010
We live for ourselves, for someone else, for noone at all.
Get knocked down, we stand; rise, we fall.
Accepting failure, envy the success.
Each second is more, each second is less.
Love will happen, not always in the same way.
Take it in, hold it, a feeling to stay.
Looking around, only needing a smile.
Why can't you be the one someone has needed for a while?
Always have a purpose, though it may not be known.
Finding yourself, not scared to be shown.
Every stranger will become a friend.
Live for something, life never ends.
