It is time.
There is nothing left to give
All that was has left deserted
What is left is pain
Of the scars that wont ever heal
Dear, thank you for the reminder
That nothing lasts forever
Not you, not me.

It is time.
With the remains of what is left of a corpse
Empty shell charred to the ashes
Do not look back for there is nothing left to behold
Only a gaping hole where a heart once was
Dear, thank you for the reminder
That nothing lasts forever
Not life, not death.

It is time.
Tonight may rebirth be a splendrous breathe of life
The carcass be anointed with oil
What once remained pure will be lost
Stained black with hopelessness
With a mellow song of wasted dreams
A new phoenix will emerge from the soot
Stronger than the one before
Dear, thank you for the reminder
That nothing lasts forever.
Not us, not love.

“I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. I knew this was going to happen. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I should be, but I’m not. I just feel pain. A lot of pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong.”

If you gave someone your heart and they died, do they take it with them?
Do you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled?

Yes.

If you gave someone your heart and they left, do they take it with them?
Do you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled?

Yes.

If you gave someone your heart and they broke it, do they still take its pieces with them?
Do you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled?

Yes.

Death ends a life, not a relationship.

- Tuesdays With Morrie

You're not alone, together we stand
I'll be by your side, you know I'll take your hand
When it gets cold and it feels like the end
There's no place to go, you know I won't give in
No, I won't give in

Keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you

There's nothing you could say, nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

So far away, I wish you were here
Before it's too late this could all disappear
Before the door's closed and it comes to an end
With you by my side I will fight and defend
I'll fight and defend, yeah, yeah

Keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you

There's nothing you could say, nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Hear me when I say when I say, I believe
Nothing's gonna change, nothing's gonna change destiny
Whatever's meant to be will work out perfectly
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you

There's nothing you could say, nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

Keep holding on
Keep holding on

There's nothing you could say, nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through

But it is not what I am saying that is hurting you; it is that you have wounds that I touch by what I have said. You are hurting yourself. There is no way I can take this personally.

- The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
Til it was a battle cry

I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never
Been this way before

All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are
As you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
Til they're before your eyes

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

How convenient it is for you to believe that all the bad that I have said and done; be aimed at you. But all the good that I have said and done; be meant for someone else.
