Precious seconds fill the void of time For every second that goes by One month has passed And only eleven more Before the end. Do you just sit there Waiting to be consumed, Or do you feel life In every second that passes? Either way your time is limited.
Are you here? Are you present in this moment, Or is the passing of time something that happens to you? What did you eat for breakfast last monday? Do you even remember this morning? Don’t let these precious seconds slip by, Just because they’re not tied to precious memories. Because the seconds with the people you love, And the ones passed in the monotony of the day to day, Are all the same length, And each is an equal step forward To the last second you get to spend.
Wilting is in our nature; It's a part of existence But the wilting bud left unbloomed Leaves no greater waste Of beautiful minds. Sprout and let your roots Plant deep But let your heart show That what you keep to yourself, Doesn’t need to be uprooted To be shown. Just because the sky breathes Winter through the clouds, Doesn’t mean the sun Isn’t shining behind them’ Don’t let yourself wilt Just because the sky gives an excuse.
Existential horror. The dread of being on a conveyor belt, Taken somewhere you don’t know, Your destination far away or around the corner, With no power to slow down or stop. Now or later, We all reach the destination we’re bound for, So why waste another moment, Staring blankly down, In attempts to deny you’re going anywhere? Look up, And join us as we face the end with hope. 334 more days. 334 more opportunities to live instead of simply not dying.
