Rachel's La-La Land (:

The Extra Mile

Scars will fade,
Shattered hearts will mend,
Memories will be lost
And nightmares will end.

Wounds will heal,
Broken hearts renewed,
The past can be erased
And I can start anew.

Forget all the troubles,
Forget all the fears,
Forget all the insults
And fake cruel peers.

Look forward and run,
Don't turn around,
And run towards the sun
Without a single doubt.

Close my eyes and wish
Upon a shooting star,
And hope that the fading light
Will carry my wish far.

Run across the meadows,
Walk along a beach,
Feel the grass and sands
Beneath the soles of my feet.

Grow wings and fly,
Deep breath, Smile,
Say goodbye to my troubles
As I go the extra mile.
