Six Seconds
Six.
Six seconds of a pain you never felt until this moment.
Six once in a lifetime chances you chose to resent.
Six seconds to recollect on life through reminiscence.
Six people who have blessed your life with their presence.
Six seconds to inhale and exhale for the final time, until your soul goes where it's destined.
Six seconds is just not enough.
Five.
Five seconds of trying to grasp life in a mere instance.
Five seconds to recollect on life through reminiscence.
Five times you gave your heart in courtesy.
Five seconds to inhale and exhale for the final time, until you R.I.P.
Five seconds is just not enough.
Four.
Four seconds to recollect on life through reminiscence.
Four times you broke her heart and failed to replenish.
Four seconds to inhale and exhale for the final time, until your life is finished.
Four seconds is just not enough.
Three.
Three seconds to recollect on life through reminiscence.
Three times you could not forgive the world and sought revenge with vengeance.
Three seconds to inhale and exhale for the final time, until the exit becomes your entrance.
Two.
Two seconds to recollect on life through reminiscence.
Two seconds is just not enough.
One.
One second to recollect on moments that will never...
While traveling through this journey called life, there's one important thing to realize. The life you were given can be taken away in mere seconds. With that being said, one must appreciate time and master its relevance. Some moments come once in a lifetime. Some never prosper. The moral is to just live life without regret. And make sure the moments that you do live are ones you will never forget.
