Best

I know I shouldn’t need it Or want it But I can’t breathe clean air without it I need you to tell me that I’m okay Tell me I’m right That I’m good at something Besides being the wax that melts Under the candle’s bold flame I want to be the best at something But I’m the chorus before the bridge The moment before the last breath

The best is not a finite goal, But a journey that fills the soul, It's in the love that we impart, A masterpiece, a work of art. In every hug and gentle smile, In going that extra mile, The best is in the joy we share, In lifting others from despair. It's in the courage to forgive, In learning how to truly live, In chasing dreams with all our might, The best is in the heart's pure light. So let us seek the best in all, In every rise, in every fall, For in this quest, we find our way, To brighter, everlasting day.
