For those who dare
I don't believe in half measures,
to live by such is solely to live but not to be alive.
I want to experience the beauty of life in all of its manifestations.
I want to feel the spray on my face as I sail through singing along with the Sirens.
There is no past and no future wherein we live,
only an eternal present, and within this I want to love you; to love you fully, strongly, and steadfastly.
If my love doesn't melt your heart then all you need say is stop.
For to live alive is to embrace all things, and
No matter how great there is no pain which out weighs the joy of love shared by those who dare.
