I could

I could run down the streets
I could climb every mountain -
the sun is up
it's a brand new day!
don't be afraid, there's still time
for our children to play

I could chase away the clouds
I could bring out the stars
for you only
don't push me away, I still care
hearts should never break (should they?)

I could spread my wings
I could do anything
though sometimes it's hard
but I'm strong, there's still life in me
I know I'm not smiling in vain

    whoa.. it's been a while since I've last posted anything here.. or written anything for that matter.

    this just kinda "came to me" last night just as I was falling asleep.. first I couldn't be arsed to get out some paper and a pen but then I figured I'd be well upset in the morning so I just had to turn on the light.. :rolleyes: :D

    lol. and I don't know if it's any good either. but somehow it's kinda appealing to me.


    I dunno if the pieces work together.. or should they be separated - do they make any sense like that..?

    I also like it. Simple and to the point.

    I'm always in for concepts like this:)

    EDIT: I meant the ''I Could" thing by the way
    I don't want to be the fool that's behind me but I am...
