While I'm Young


I want to be amazing.
I want to meet a person for a minute and leave a burning impression for a lifetime.
I want to be healthy.
In mind, in body, and in spirit.
I want to be loved and to fully love others.
I want to accept that life is short and that most things aren't worth frowning about.
I want to touch lives and learn from experiences.
I want to grow old and wise while staying young and alive.
I want to experience something taboo.
I want to open my eyes from a different angle.
I want to be my best self
I want to let my light shine and guide others in the direction of their best selves as well.
