The Truth

Take or leave it that's up too 
me. 

I find myself not so free. 

Once again I'm at the start 
trying to figure out if that was 
smart. 

I laugh, I cry and I want to die 
but in the end I never 
pretend.

Embrace the fact that I'm  
alone the choices I make will 
be my home.

Never look back is what I say 
if I follow my heart I will not 
astray.

These are the words of a guy 
who will always look up at the 
sky.

I take a deep breath and close 
my eyes then I exhale with a 
big ol sigh.

Drifting slowly into sleep I'll 
dream of you which will be so 
sweet.

Victor, a nice sweet ending, a sweet, refreshing feeling, when embracing any choice that comes from the heart... enjoyed. Linda
