How do you react
But with utter sadness
And sorrow when
You're given a time frame?
When there's a time stamp
On your life as you know it,
How do you act around
Your family and friends?
Do you spend the six weeks
That you've got left,
Moping and sulking,
Or making the most of every moment?
It's hard to focus on success
When you know the ultimate reality
That you're being faced with,
And quite frankly, it *****.
Your life went from whatever
Normal may be for you,
To living every moment
On a severely impairing time crunch.
Six weeks, seven at best,
But regardless, it's not enough time.
You need time to cope,
Time to heal mentally.
You need time,
But that's the one thing you don't have.
