When you touch me my worries melt away
Your touch so soft my heart would sway
And you would brush aside my hair
And whisper gently in my ear
That nothing could break our love
Because it was a gift from above
You would look into my eyes
And say they reminded you of blue skies
I lay on the bed a tear escaping my eye
Trying hard not to cry
I thought our love would always last
I never thought it would become a thing of the past

My love I will never forget
How we watched the sunset
We sat on top of a hill
And you kissed me and time stood still
Nobody else was here
Except for the moment we had to share

I made an album of us together
Our memories preserved in photos forever
We looked through it, our spirits so high
But now when I look through it I start to cry
A tear slides down my cheek
My heart suddenly becomes weak
I picture our hands slipping away
Us going our separate ways
I wish I could have kissed you one last time
Before you stopped being mine

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;

&quot;I would rather hated million times for what i did then loved a million times for what i didn&#039;t do.&quot; - Daniel Moto<br /> &quot; I&#039;ve sought out to be the best i could posibly be but when i hit a roadblock in life what did i do, i had two choices either stay at the roadblock or i take this roadblock and make of it and go around it and achieve my goal. So, what will it be?&quot;- Daniel Mathia <br /> <br /> &quot;People take love like its a four letter word or just a phrase that you tell people or your friends all the time. But in reality love is much bigger than a merely phrase or 4 letter word. Instead love is a genuine promise or covenant to that special person.&quot;-Daniel Mathia <br /> <br /> &ldquo;Why change yourself when you were made perfect and wonderfully by the creator of everything?&rdquo; &ndash; Daniel Mathia <br /> <br /> &ldquo;If live is not hurtin then were really not living in.&rdquo; &ndash; B.
