Life is too short
To wake up with regrets,
So just love the people
Who treat you right
And forget about the rest.
Believing is everything.
You have to believe in yourself
And believe everything happens for a reason.
If you get a second chance,
Grab it with both hands.
Don’t let go,
Hang on to it
And if it changes your life,
Simply… let it.
No one said life would be easy,
But life was promised to be worth it.
Just as your friends are…
Some are just friends.
Some are good friends.
There are a few
Who are special friends…
Like you!
Special friends are like balloons…
Once you let them go,
You can never get them back.
They become whispers in the wind.
Whispers upon the lips.
Whispers of love
That flow in and out of life
Like the wind driven waves of a midday tide.
I’m going to tie you to my heart,
So I will never lose you!
I will never lose the love we share.
If you ever need me,
Don’t hesitate to call…
I will be there
Spring, summer, winter or fall.
Because I’ve got you tied to my heart
Author notes
I'm not really sure about this one. I'm not really happy with how it turned out. Any suggestions on how to help this be better? I know it could be much better than it is. Thanks.

so many people come in to our lives and enter our hearts only to leave footprints behind and then there are those that decided to plant roots and stay.
thats how this made me feel. as though someone had hunkered down into your heart for the duration.
