I wish I could,
Just go away,
Without a trace or sound.
I wish I could,
Just disappear,
Drop out and never be found.
I wish I could,
Just be with you,
For now, just for a day.
I wish I could,
Fly high with you,
Fly with you today.

I wish I could,
Leave this behind,
I don't need it anyway.
I wish I could,
Forget it all.
Throw it all away.
I wish I could,
Tell you everything,
That I've ever wanted to.
I wish I could,
Just let you know,
I'm nothing without you.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

The truth is that at some point, everyone&#039;s going to hurt you. You just have to decide who&#039;s worth the pain.<br /> <br /> Some say having something to lose is what makes you vulnerable. I believe that having something to lose only makes you stronger.
