Our Lives
Life
At the age of 13, it seems that you have the rest of your life ahead of you
But the end is near
It’s only a matter time when it’s all over
The clock is ticking
Taking away seconds
Minutes
Hours
Days
Years
Decades
Lives
We try to make our lives seem to matter
We try so hard
We try to make our lives to be bigger
But they’re not
We have 7 billion people on this Earth
Do you really think everyone will care if you die?
Only a few will
And some of those people will not be alive to weep
To mourn
They will have beat you
Beat you to actually have someone mourn
People to keep your legacy at their funeral
Life is precious
Make every second count
