Everything breaks
It's not about how you can momentarily fix something
It not about how much you love it
It's about time
What is time you ask?
Time is simply about deterioration
Every **** second we are closer to death
Time is a *****, a ***** that just won't forgive
What can you do about it?
You can choose to hug trees instead of humans
You can simply not get close to anyone
You can shut everything out and pretend to exist
The thing is, yes everything will die
You can't control that
You can decide to just **** yourself
Because you're going to die anyway right?
Or you can take a moment to cherish what you do have, or what you might have
Set all life after death beliefs aside and look around
Look at the road crumbling
Look at the blood dripping down your skin
And then turn around and look at life
Take in the times when you get to see your girlfriend smile
The times when life overtakes death
Take in the moment your little sister comes to you crying and tells you about how no one cares
And then tell her that you care about her and that you'll never stop caring about her, and let her hug you
Take a moment to touch a tree and feel how connected it is the earth
Take a moment to truly feel life
And when you start to feel like you're dying
Remember that day where you felt like you were bigger than death
It's a constant battle isn't it?
Between living and letting death win
Between losing time and defying it
And maybe you don't win
But life isn't about winning
Life is about the game
And I've had days when I'm slipping
And I've had days when I feel infinite
Take some time to truly love someone
Because love is infinite
It's not an object, it's a feeling
A feeling time can't just destroy
Tell people how much they mean to you
Hug them while you can
Watch them live
Because one day you won't be able to
So you can hug trees instead of humans
But your tree will eventually die
And you can decide to not let someone hurt you
But pain is apart of life
All I'm saying is
Yes we die
But we also live
And I'm telling you, I hold on to the way my girlfriend smiles and the way my brother hugs me because that's what makes me feel alive. That's how I defy time
