Stay


Stay by the shore, my friend. Stay away from the deep, dark ocean. Stray from the path that leads to the unknown. The cold, bitter taste of reality. There’s a lot of hell on the way to a little bit of heaven. A lot of fire on the way to the water that puts it out. Stay strong, my friend, for you still have plenty of time to plug up the sink up and stop your life from going down the drain. Keep going, my friend. Stand up, and show the world what you can do. While you may not think it’s much, there’s someone out there who feels like you are worth it. You are special, my friend. The world is a big place, so some. But to me, you are the world.
