two years on, but it still sounds true


I guess it's about honesty. About allowing yourself to feel what you feel, reaching out and realising there are truths in life that too many people try to escape from. That in the end, while your look-on-the-brighter-side optimism may be commendable, it could also be a little too far from the reality that is staring you in the eyes.

I suppose we are all made for an expedient purpose. We all have our sell-by dates. One for every episode; and when it ends we move on and find another mission to accomplish. It's not so much about winning and losing or getting up and falling down. It's the little moments that define our lives. And at the end of the day, your heart knows better than your mind. Maybe because it's stronger.

You look up to the sky on a sunny day and it seems like your dreams are written on the clouds. Perhaps it's not about reaching them, since it's a fine line between dreams and fantasies. It's always the next best thing that you're rummaging for. And we all know what makes us free. So when the correct melodies fill your space and time, you take a deep breath and count to ten. And out of the bland, ordinary air, your face beams of a joy that they'll never understand. For a brief moment when the days never seem to end, you're free.
