life isn't about the number of moments you take to breathe, but about the number of moments that take your breathe away.

When the times have got me down
You give me something to believe
When I feel in pain I drown
You’d kill yourself so I could breathe

When I lay awake at night
You lay there with me ‘til I rest
When I hide from the dark in fright
You hold me close to the warmth in your chest

At times I wonder what we’ll be
Thinking of the future’s plans
I only hope that you and me
Will be forever hand in hand

And when I dream a horrible dream
I hope you’ll ignore it and stay asleep
For I don’t want you to hear me scream
Only comfort me when I weep

I started out full of predjudices when I began reading this. But I must say I was impresed. It has poetic quality that some of my own tend to lack.
