Moment To Live

Life can be the most confusing thing,
Sometimes you lose and sometimes you win.
One day you’re happy and everything great,
While others, there’s nothing more you could hate.
But did you ever take time to stop and think?
That your life could end as quick as a blink?
So next time you’re about to scream and shout,
Stop and think what it’s all about.
I’m not here to speak of life’s true meaning,
Or tell you not to waste your life dreaming.
All I really want to say…
Is do you ever notice how you spend your day?
Are you the type who lets it all pass by?
You miss so much and can’t figure out why.
Or do you take every chance you can possibly make?
Trying to get a thrill no matter what’s at stake.
This is no way to live your life,
For it can only end in anger and strife.
All you need is a bit of caring,
You’d be surprised what can come from sharing.
So next time you’re about to give a shove,
Open your arms and show a little love.
So even if it’s hard, try not to worry,
Don’t push ahead in such a hurry,
Don’t think of different choices you should have made,
Or waste a moment cause you were too afraid.
Don’t dwell in the past, it won’t change a thing,
Just look to the future and what it can bring.
Don’t let your heart become hard and cold,
Or regret the fact that you’re growing old.
Many are denied that very right,
Without the chance to put up a fight.
Give all the love you’ve got to give,
And be grateful that you have a life to live.
