Three things


There are three things in this world,
I might know for certain,
one may start by knowing that,
you can't live behind the curtain.
the more you might pretend to be,
the more that they might add,
you cannot live in fear my dear,
for that just makes me sad.

the second is an easy one,
it's ok to make mistakes,
you might've heard — here or there,
but it's only true if it takes.
don't live in regret of what's been done,
look forward after back,
you might end up — if not forgiving,
following a repeat track.

the last thing I might really know,
only lived to learned, 
is that it might,
be just OK,
to stand between a herd.
Everyone is different,
So no matter what they say,
stand strong against the altered you,
and be your truth for yet another day.

    And whispered to the moon,

    About the days that haunted her,

    And those that would come soon.

    She wanted to apologize,

    For wishing on the stars,
