Aaah

The journey of birth to death only once
unprepared to accept the ultimate finality
you ride the roller coaster of emotions
taking care of the necessity of meals and a pot to **** in
you forget the magic of the gift
taking a breath with lungs filled with the smog of competition
you trample every day sensation to a routine under your belt
and that is why we are human to burden ourselves with tomorrow 
when today is escaping
each step you take bring you closer to ignore the muscle 
pumping an heart ready to burst the sacrifice of the child
