My love is like a supernova’s life
The present is an illusion
You’re only 15. You still have time and a huge road ahead
You dreamed of conquest the world and when you grew up you’ve seen that life isn’t what you expected
All those people, all of them, full of love… they don’t even know
I could rule the world but, baby, that would be nothing if you weren’t by my side
I can’t wait to start living
It’s not about how things really are, it’s how you feel about them.
Don’t run from your problems because they will become you, somehow. That only will make things harder at a point. Blind yourself is never a solution.
Give time to time and things will happen eventually
Things you need will find their own way to come to you

Note: I wrote this 10 years ago. Today I turn 25. It seems like a good time for it to see the light of day.
