in 1,000 years

Post by mtmynd » December 12th, 2008, 7:14 pm

let us both become friends
before this life retreats
leaving only shards of memories
that glued together in 1,000 years
will only resemble something dead

i feel like cons here too. i read it and right now it really rings true with me.

without going into any details mob mentality has started at my old college, i posted something taht wasn't in line with there movement.

theres more to life then vilifying and gloriffying.

ah jesus.

no seriously i loved it because it summed up a feeling, without saying litterally how you felt and did so in so few words.
Blah!

The time is right for friendship. Pretty soon we'll be pushing up the daisies and the opportunity will have lapsed.

In a thousand years

Who knows?

The streets may be paved with gold

And no one will bother

with money anymore

No matter how large the numbers

Friendship is God to me.
