To My Dear LSAers

Wishing I could be there
With all of you tonight
Enjoying games and laughter
Long throughout the night
But since I could not go
I will think of you instead
Being grateful there's no snow
And lots of pretzel bread

Lonely Road

I walk a lonely road
Down paved streets
With flashing lights

After hours of hard work
Sweating tears of pain
This is where I live

A lonely road that never ends
I push forward
Taking it step by step

I walk a lonely road
With cheering crowds
And endless hours

Motivation is my only friend
As kind words fade
And the bad remains

A lonely road with several bends
I rush forward
Not going to let it win
