Life

Life is here
It by goes too fast
So don’t sit back 
And let it pass

Live it
Love it
Embrace it 
Never ever 
Try to erase it

Let the warm sun 
Touch your face
Reach for the stars 
And touch the sky
Because life is gone 
In a blink of an eye

You’ll never get back tomorrow
And you have no time to borrow
So open your heart
And take life as it comes
And try to live like it has only just begun
