"Here's To..."

Here's to the nights that we felt alive. Here's to the days when we couldn't wait to get out of school. To the days when we wished we'd never go home and to the days when we wished it were all over. Three cheers, I say, to always having a shoulder to lean on and arms to catch you when you fall. And of course, to the nights when you're crying yourself to sleep thinking, "what did I say that was so wrong?" To feeling like you're going to collapse if you do one more thing. Here's to edging in your seat, watching the clock waiting for the last school bell to ring. Here's to feeling like you're floating on clouds drifting just above the sea. And to the way that butterflies seem to carry you on your journey. Here's to the weights that never seem to be lifted off of your shoulders. Here's to sleeping in on a Saturday morning, dreaming about how messed up your life is and how to improve it. Here's to trying to be the best that you can.
