Remember...

You cannot make up time
     but you can capture a moment,
forever etched in your memory
     that you will savor and replay
over again in times when your soul hungers
     for the warmth and comfort
We cannot live within the past
     it is never in our grasp
but hold on to what you cherish
     and that love will never perish
a treasure that is yours to share
     for we all have love to spare
if we give as we receive
     this is what i've come to believe
a heart that beats true never needs
     though we all have our wants
what we can't and what we can
     we all come to understand
and it does not diminish us
    to reach out our hands
when we give and when we need...
