Old Makes Way for New

Time to Let Go of the Old
Accept the Inevitable
And Embrace the New
This Coming Year

¡Happy New Year 2009!

5¢ Lemonade

There are times I remember
When we'd be sitting on my porch
I'd be playing on my guitar and you-
You'd be singing out your heart
The sun still rises like it did all these years ago

And I wish I could be with you again
Let's go back to when we were young
Selling 5¢ lemonade and going to the fair
To buy purple balloons
When the only thing that mattered was me and you
And our dreams

Now I see a loss of innocence is evident
As you wrap the scarf around your neck
Why did you change?
I can't get over how my friend is nothing more then a stranger

And I wish I could be with you again
Let's go back to when we were young
Selling 5¢ lemonade and going to the fair
To buy purple balloons
When the only thing that mattered was me and you
And our dreams

See the sun coming over the top?
It still rises like it did years ago

Carpe Diem

Three and a half months left
And I'm still too freaked out.
But my stubbornness might come in handy
Because it's starting to push the scared part aside

Three Years and a half left
And I'm still too scared to know what to do
I want to go out there and live my life so strong
And maybe when it all clicks I'll climb out that window to find the open door

The rest of my life left
And I know I want to make a difference
I never want to have any regrets and I can't help but wonder
If these two things could possibly be the biggest one's if I don't seize them

Because I want to know you and myself better

Travel the Lesser Road

Sometimes I try to imagine
What its like for you to live there
With me here
So far from you

And then I realize
I know so much less about you
Then I thought that I ever did
And I knew more then most

So now you left me asking questions
Wanting answers
Dying to know what happened
What this means

But I'll leave it to you
To figure it out first
And then maybe once you're ready
You can let me know

And Fly Back to me to Pour Out your Heart's Cries

Obviously,

I knew that already

One Two Three

It all comes down to this:
cowardliness
or
i suck it up, take a deep breath, and go

Step off the edge with eyes wide open
See what I'm free falling into
Because in the end I know
Everything will be okay

There are of course a few possible outcomes
Rejection, Acquaintances, Friendship,
Possibly, dare I utter, love?
If I do remain true and open my mouth

And if I do not? Nothing.
None of those would happen
And both of us would remain a friend short
This is all what my gut tells me

I'm scared
Because I am not bold
But then who says I need to be bold
When I can act confident?

Find the common denominator.
Find the courage.
Find the ability to move against the flow
I've made for myself all these years

on the count of three let go. one, two...

Death over Life

Is it wrong to not cry
When I don't fear death
But everyone else around me
Is making rivers?
