So Long

So long Tommorrow
Shine So brightly
Live so freely
Cry together
Laugh so deeply
Smile Forever
Be What you can
Be Believe in
You Shall bring us
Pride Forever
And I cannot
Bend To sunset
End All Things
Before They begin
Show Some mercy
Hold On to me

I salute You briefly
We are One No leaving
We will Talk So subtly
We shall Hold So tightly
Find Me wanting
Touch So softly
Breathe So camly
Give Me hope to
Want So subtly
Yes I'll follow
You So Swiftly
Kneel Before us
Let us guide you
Wash Away your
fears be complete
Grab on to me
Guide My feelings
Set Me free
to Wash Away 
the Sins Of all 
That hurt us on the
shores of winter
Never Once
Ill forget
times According
Bring Me joy to
Grasp this setting
I submit This column
Birds Are chirping
Clouds Are parting
Suns Are rising
Win Ters Falling
Storms Are ending
Men Are rising
Oh This freedom
This is you
No conflict
This is me
No deceipt
This is US
Be simple
