I am alive, for now
I've lost count of how many days have gone by
all I know for certain is this,
I will not survive the next 24 hours
I can't explain it, I just know
It's quite liberating actually
knowing when you're going to die
the worst thing to do is panic, to try and alter the future
what you should do I relax
and have a look back
a look back at your life
the good memories
the bad ones
and everything in between
its worth something to you
your very first memory
the first time you walked
the first day of school
riding a bike
your first day at high school
your first girlfriend
the proposal
the wedding
your first child
raising them as your own
and letting them live their life
everything is worth something
so hold it tight
and don't let go
