today,
i will watch the sunrise, embrace the laughter of the colours.
i will watch the smiles, listen to the whispers.
i will make life of the clouds, as they sweep the sky.
i will close my eyes while the breeze kisses my face,
i will hold every moment in my arms....

today,
i will listen to every word, wipe every tear.
i will look in your eyes while you talk to me, hold your hand while we laugh.
i will sit with you just to feel your warmth.
i will be thankful for the silence we can share.
i will love you more and open my heart....

today,
i will sit on the floor with you.
i will put away my world to play in yours.
i will laugh with you like there is no pain, no worries, no one else in the world.
i will caress your face, feel your soft skin.
i will listen to your stories, hold them in my arms, while i hold you....

today,
i will count the stars, let their diamonds light my dark.
i will make love on the warm beach, and run in the sand.
i will travel the earth, and learn to love new people.
i will live every dream, follow every fantasy.

today,
i will live.
and tomorrow....
i may not.
