I wanted to live until I was one hundred years old when I was a child
Now I want to live a fully lived life
Everything in this world has an expiration date
We will all pass away and become dust
But how do I want my time on this earth to be spent?
Spent worrying about the things happened in the past
Time wasted with people who do not see my self worth or value
or don't even acknowledge my presence
The words I held back because I was too afraid to say them
for fear of judgment
The words I wanted to say to the people I cherish the most in my life
but didn't say them because I was too embarrassed or hesitant

This life is but a vapor
And I want to live each and every second of it
thankful for each breath God has so graciously gifted me with
I don't know if I'll die tomorrow
Tomorrow is not guaranteed
life is but a vapor
