If Tomorrow Starts Without Me
Kayleigh's One of Us Challenge
If tomorrow starts without me,
don't let it stop for you.
The sun still will rise,
and you, my dear, must too.
šļø
If tomorrow starts without me,
I won't tell you not to cry.
For it would be a fruitless plea -
I know you hate goodbyes.
šļø
If tomorrow starts without me,
please know I'm watching from above.
I have found myself at peace,
and I'm leaving you my love.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
