Here's to the future we can't predict,
and here's to all that we will meet.
I can't say where I'm going,
but I know it'll be something great
because it's the kind future
that holds our dreams.

Here's to the future that awaits us,
and here's to the past that will follow us.
I can't say I won't make just as many mistakes,
or that I'll learn from all my old ones,
but I know I'll be better for it
because eventually I'll get it.

Here's to the future that we'll finally grab,
and here's to all the hell we got while chasing it.
I can't say I didn't break,
but I'm alive and kicking today
because I kept going when I wanted to cry,
'cause hope pulled me forward.

And here's to those who see a bleak future,
and here's to those fools who accepted it.
I can't say anything to reach them,
but I cross my fingers and hope
that they'll see something worth chasing
because any journey is better with company.

I vented a bit, and at the end my little written rant some words inspired me to write this poem. It's been a long time since I wrote anything. Especially since I owe Rei a poem... I just can't seem to write a even semi-decent one. I'm not actually sure how good this one is, since I didn't rework it and that usually means when I go back and read this I'll think it's crap, but we'll see. I'll probably end up reworking this poem later anyways since I really like this poem. Something about it... strikes a cord with me personally. As I was writing this... some of the things I put reminded me of some things Rei said about the future. Not in the same words mind you... but the concepts or at least the impressions it left in me. This poem makes me want to smile a little. So cheers!!

"You are the bounce in my step,
The rhyme in my love song.
The second voice to my duet,
The one I dreamed of before we met.
My heart beat, my summer breeze,
My destiny is set."

I think if you tried writing poems you'd get good at them. But thanks!

I dunno, you just sounded very wise.

... Me wise? Well, if the glove fits... XD Just kidding, I'm really flattered you think I sounded wise.

Maybe. I've done a few. I'm just one of those people that really don't like what they do. ^^;
