first story of the year... what will it be?

writing stories, hoping to make a change

to share my passion, to motivate

praying to succeed

so this dream doesn't end

I cannot afford to fail

I don't have a choice

I've got to create

they say 'do it for the story'

the drama and the pain

the love will come one day

or maybe it won't

I almost forgot how it felt

the way you loved me

the way you cared

the way you wanted and needed

you missed the moment I left

first story of the year... what will it be?

hopes and dreams

adventures and friends

love and disdain

take me far away

even when I promised to stay

I don't think I want to pretend

to be reasonable or to care

I think... it's time to embrace

the insanity that brought me here
