When it comes to life pretty much eveything is unexpected.

The only thing you can count on is the steady beating of your heart.

Heartbeats keep track of of lives but even they dont know it all.

They do not know the moments that occur as the heart steadily keeps beating on.

Lies are what life is made off.

Good lies. Bad lies. We are constantly lying.

We tell ourselve that it will get better. 

We tell ourselves that this is just a one time thing.

Our heart keeps beating on; never varying. 

But the lies we tell can decide the impact of our lives.

Will it only matter to us? 

Or can they change the world.
