Celebration
There's nothing that can be said
To make this any easier
I recognize this as a fact
But it could be made more difficult
By misplacing one's words
So please have mercy on me
If only for this moment
Please let the hurt remain behind tonight
And embrace me in the arms of friendship
We come not to chronicle transgression
Real or imagined
Instead let us celebrate
In honour of future celebrations
Time can rend everything
So little there is that stands its test
Let's not invest only in the material
Instead, let's cultivate future memories
For far too soon our paths will diverge
And someday I'll be on the path you won't take
This evening we must simply allow ourselves
To enjoy the company we have right now
On this road of eventual end
It's over too soon
To try and travel alone
We can make a caravan of love tonight
It's up to you
It's up to me
And everyone who dares to walk between
