            long from here are the beaches of my dreams.. like crystal memories... they swirl and glisten, gaze intently, and maybe you'll hear, the harsh mists of memory, of things gone and things lingering persistently. You'll wish them gone and wish them back again, never sure of where your mind rests, and this light pervading, crystallic nostalgia, will lead you forever down the path of the infinite flight of time,

and before you've realized that you've taken flight, your own end is near, and you see it, and you cringe from it. You wipe your eyes, hoping it is only an illusion or a hallucination, but it gazes unfalteringly back. For your end has no emotions or feelings. It just is. It comes for you whether you see it, miss it, welcome it, or dread it.  This is a harsh knowledge that we all are aware of. Take note of it and live your life in light of this knowledge. Keep your eyes off your past, lest you miss your future
