And so the time has come for me to believe that all things must surely have to end. And great loves must one day have to part. Well, I definitely know that I
was meant for this world. The grass is green today. The wind is blowing. And the sun shines.

The walkways are filled with cluttered images of brokenness. Pockets of dead grass are becoming more evident of death enclosing in. The once beauty is
fading away.

Rocks scattered throughout this land show the true meaning of love. The scent of the cold air shows the true meaning of love forgotten. And the sun
shines.

On the side of each of me are the weights of continuance that bestow to me a feeling of humanity. But only the greatest weight, time, is the heaviest
distance. And the sun shines.

My journey to where I have become what I am today has stopped dead in its tracks. There is no reason to go any further. I collapse here under the copula
and pray. Looking at the stars, I don’t see the three. As I lay here, I wait for the tears to stop falling, the pain to be forever gone, and my heart to cease
beating. And the sun shines.

I long for the days now to when I can reach the other side. But it seems too far away. If there were only someone to help walk this world with me, all would
be bright, all would be real. And the sun shines.

Life: It isn't about who I am, or who I have been with, or if I have been with anyone at all. It's not about presenting my entire being on a piece paper and
seeing who will "accept the written me." Life just isn’t. But, life is about whom I can love and whom I can hurt. It's about people keeping or betraying my
trust. It's about friendship, being pure or not. And it's about what I say and what I mean, while it may be the truth, or it may be just what you want to hear.

I am left here feeling high and dry. And the sun shines- but I don’t.

It’s crazy what we could have had.
