Just Live.

When you believe in forever
You're believing in wasted time
When you believe in the present
You're believing that your heart beats race the ticking clock
When you believe in the past
You're trusting fast fading memories

When all that is said and done
What's left to believe in?
Friends?Family?

The past is looming, the future fading
When this life is over, where to we end?
Where do we begin?

Don't believe in time
That your dreams are fading
That the nightmare is waking

Trust animosity, don't be scared to fall in love
Don't dwell on the past, present or future.

Just live.

Jezz Phoenix, you have grown

Jezz Phoenix, you have grown up. Right before our very eyes, in your writing I mean. That was deep. And very far seeing and wise. I throughly enjoyed that. I can see alot in this write I havn't seen before. And I like it. AWESOME. Way to go. I almost feel like a proud little auntie bee. Thank you for sharing that, you just made my night. And since it's time to go to bed, that was great way to end my night too. Julie D.D.
