I remember when I was little,
And dreaming of the life before me.
I had an idea of who I wanted to be,
What I wanted to do,
The kind of person I want to by my side
& how I wanted to feel about the whole     
   ordeal we call life in general.

Who I wanted to be was easy.
I just wanted to be me.
No dreams of grandeur or wealth unseen.
Nothing more than a simple life would do for  
 me.
I knew exactly what I wanted to do.
I just wanted to live until I died,
With no regrets along way.
The person by my side,
Would be nothing less than someone I would 
  love until I die.
Even if our lives took different paths,
And we parted ways.
The love would always remain. 
At the end of it all,
I wanted to be able to look back and remember it all.
Then with a smile, 
And a twinkle in my eye
Take my last breath and say goodbye.
Knowing I did the best with what I had.

Though I have fallen short of a few.
The ones I have accomplished
More than make up for those.
I never forgot to be who I was.
I managed to live life on my own terms.
I even found someone worth loving to the ends of the Earth, 
Even though we took different road's.
I wish I could say I lived with no regrets,
But life has a way of throwing those in.
I don't know if I'll be able,
To look back with a smile and a twinkle.
So if I do,
Just know, it was thoughs many great 
  memories
I share with all of you.
