Shine Until Tomorrow

whisper all your frail thoughts
burden them unto my soul
don't give in to negative seeds
let the darkness be

take my hand and follow
as we chase that light called hope
never let it stray from sight
like a flower tracking the sun

we'll face the winds
of temptation and change
we'll stand in stoic defiance
to the rains of infinite doubt

together we'll be one
challenging life to sever the bond
and if we shine until tommorow
fate will leave us be

    Fate will never leave our side...never turn away from the light, nor give in to the dark. What a wonderful friendship that would be. Or a love that is never apart, but together for all eternity. ~Sie
