The Journey 1-6-98

The journey we’re on could end so fast
                                            So live everyday as if it is your last.

                                           The world is hard to live in, everyone can
                                           But we must give in, and show what we can take.

                                           People and things will hurt us, that’s an easy thing to see
                                           So there’s no need to fuss, believe me.

                                           Everyone goes through it and that’s no lie
                                           But we must give up and want to die.

                                          Life is a gift so hold it close to your heart
                                          A lot of things happen that seem to be hard.

                                           But always remember, someone loves you
                                           Believe me, I know that I do.
