Here's to the people we said goodbye to, Even though all we ever wanted was to told on to them, Begging them to stay. Here's to those of us who still think someone who's long gone, And struggle to let go. Here's to the people we miss so much, That the mere thought of them, Feels like a knife to the throat. Here's to the chances we didn't take, Because the fear of failing, Was more than something that crossed our minds, It was a tangible thing that seeped into our skin, And paralyzed our bones. Here's to the tears we allow to stream down our cheeks, Before we fall asleep at night so no one sees. Here's to the love we have given over the years, The pieces of our hearts we handed out, And never got back. Here's to the feeling we had to hide, And fake smiles we plastered on our faces, To uphold our charades. Here's to whatever obstacle we've had to overcome, Whatever battle we've had to fight, Whatever pain we've had to feel, To make us kinder and better people, To make us evolve and grow. Here's to everyone who believes in something more, In magic, In love, In the power of dreams and faith, And everyone who has something to fight for. Here's to everything that made us who we are today. Every glorious thing, The mountains we had to climb, The stars we had to count. Here's to our ordinary lives, We never fail to turn into something extraordinary. Here's to our beautiful selves, Raw and real, A reminder that life is not a line or a constant, But a vivid creature with its up and downs, And that all inconveniences considered, We're doing pretty damn great.
