Before You Die

by Richard Alan   Feb 16, 2007


Speak the truth,
Fight the lie,
You never know,
When youll die,

So seize the day,
Capture now,
Love your life,
Someway somehow,

Be creative,
Share a smile,
Breath the moment,
For awhile,

Make a wish,
Take a chance,
Believe in love,
With just a glance,

Revel beauty,
Take it in,
If you havent yet,
Please begin,

Live for love,
Trust in fate,
The two of which,
Make this life great,

Forgive a sin,
Deny a treason,
Shed a tear,
For no reason,

Chase a rainbow,
In the rain,
Run through puddles,
Till you gain,

The magic and wonder,
Of a child,
So your imaginations,
Running wild,

Let a stranger,
See you cry,
Trust a friend,
Dont ask why,

When evil warrants,
The situation,
Rise above,
The deprivation,

Seek out wisdom,
Every day,
Appreciate life,
In every way,

Hear my words,
And take a vow,
To live today,
Live for now!
