reasons

you write things down

because

writing

is much easier

than actually saying

things

you act things out

because you

know people

would understand more

of what you want

them to

understand

and feel

you feel things much

because

you know

that in feeling

something

you're convincing

yourself you're human

and

alive

you reach for your dreams

because

you know

that though

stars are hard to

reach

they sometimes

fall too

you love though it hurts

because you

know

you only

live once

and its better

to have loved

than never to

have loved at

all

you dance to no music

and smile to yourself

because you

know

there's more to life

than pain

there's those

moments

that would make

your heart

flutter too

you go to work

everyday

because even though

you won't admit it

there's more to it

than just the paycheck

there's people you care

about

people you could not imagine leaving

people who have

somehow

now been a part of

you

of me

you read my words

despite the fact

that you think

this makes no

sense

that it goes

on

and

on

but though long

you could

relate

so you

read

this phrases

of one or two

and you

smiled

you thought

things over

because like

me

you're

thinking

you're dreaming

you know

you feel

you love

you dream

you hope

you

are

alive
