[QUOTE="Alantie Tairis, post: 2562155"] [b]- More -[/b] [i]If there's a chance to live your life like a story, Then write it how you want to see it flow. There's always the crucial beginnings, the calling And the middle where the adventures go. But the conclusion of the tale is yet to be made, The hands hold a pen that only drips ink. Pretty pictures tell a fantasy you live, you forbade Now there's more to be said and to think. If there's a chance to live your life like a play, Then the whole world is your stage my dear. Makeup and directions can only send you on your way, The lines a soliloquy which you speak yet fear. You are dressed in the formality of a dysfunctional tradition, Yet the lights only command stage fright. Lick your lips and then bow to the audience's transition, They watch you dramatise your life tonight. If there's a chance to live your life like a Princess, With someone on hand to your every whim, then do. There is no tiara to set on perfect curls, no less Than a cardboard cut out which reflects you. Plain and simple, yet royalty is what is made of bravery, And often the noble appear stupid as dirt. But then you're going out in style, let you be. A smile on rose lips to cover the hurt. If there's a chance to live your life like a God, You could happily entwine your fingers into the life's stream. You could mould the future as you from life abscond, But it wouldn't be any more real, a passing day dream. You've chased down every temporary high or low, But on that silver limned cloud you sit and wonder Is there more to this life, where now do you go? If there's something missing, divinity won't return it any longer. If there's a chance to live your life, like a song, Then how will you write down those effervescent notes. A haphazard scramble of heart breaking love all along, Those melodies so sweet, candour of you it denotes. Don't sit and wait for a song to record your life. It'll never be the same song twice. Make your own little tune to dance along the strife, Take those songs and make them all your life. If, There's a chance to live your life like your own, How many people would apply for the joy it has been? Would they understand your shadows or the overgrown Thorns of horrid pain left unchecked. Not all as it seems. But the life is there, not story or song or dance, Just this time spent in what you joyfully enlist. If there's a story then why don't you take a chance, Because there's more to life than just this.[/I] ~ Alantie Tairis ~ [/QUOTE]
