The Great Fa,Cade

Not wanting to waste my life, I've learned to cut my seconds in half. When I explained this to a friend all he could do was laugh. Every second that you waste, gives your future self a second you wish to have back. By wasting away all those moments, you can get your life so far off track. So I split my seconds in half thinking every thought that can be found. Now years ahead I think in the future, amazed by the slow process all around. Do not be fooled by the great façade that has been cast before your eyes. Look further into the future, to see your surrounded by nothing but lies. Thoughts that are mentally implanted, within the sub consciousness of your minds. Though you rarely ever notice them, everywhere you look they are easy to find. This world is just a point in time to which you may never return. We all have a purpose in life, and that purpose is what we should learn.
