In Twenty Four Hours

In twenty four hours life can drastically change..... One moment blissfully happy walking on cloud nine Thinking life is beautiful and wonderful, oh so divine Then something happens that fills you with despair Feels like you have been sent to hell without a prayer Maybe doctors tells you have some incurable disease Up to the heavens you look, reciting desperate pleas Or you have cancer and you must battle for your life It is like being stabbed in the gut with an invisible knife You find out the one you adore, no longer loves you The life your shared together is suddenly bid adieu Or you lose a loved one, death causes so much pain Barely holding self together, trying not to go insane In twenty four hours life can drastically change..... One moment living a life filled with sorrow and strife Questioning your fate and the purpose of your life Then somethings happens that fills you full of hope A glimmer of an incline instead of a downward slope Your disease is treatable, quality of life still intact You decide to fight with all you got, stop being attacked Your cancer has gone into remission, life is yours once more You promise to live each moment fully, like you never did before A person enters your life and shows you what love truly is about This special love will last forever, this you know without a doubt A newborn enters your life whom you cherish and adore The unconditional love of a child, no one could ask for more. In twenty four hours life can drastically change..... It's how you chose to deal with life curves is what really matters Try to be positive and not let negative thoughts rip you into shatters Find the courage and the strength to face each day anew Everyone has hurdles that their trying to live through Their is always someone that is far worse off than you Let family and friends help hold you together like glue Remember you matter to those that hold you dear Have faith and hope, don't let yourself succumb in fear Don't dwell on yesterdays sorrows, for you can't change the past Tomorrow is beyond our control and comes without being asked Live for today and deal with each battle as they come For your life is the last thing you should abstain from!
