"Your mind fights the battles, but your heart wins the war." -Liz Ruth


As young as we are,
we find the world as an uneven balanced bar.
With pain and sorrow, we must walk along,
and continue to live our live our lives strong.

We have finally opened our eyes to see
just how fortunate we are to be.
Desires and wishes we should not allow
to take over the things we have now.

Hold on tight to what you’ve got,
for one day they’ll be there not.

As young as he was,
he deserved only love.
He knew his life was unfairly treated,
which made him feel like he was defeated.

Heaven has gained a brave boy,
one whose love will never be destroyed.
Always remembering words have an affect,
we will continue to show our respect.

As young as he was,
and as young as we are,
we must all keep shining like stars.
