Lifespan
However short life always seem
The road ahead is ever so long
Never enough sleep for too much dreams
Is there enough life to belong?
As I sat as I watch the never life
Ever roles ever so evermore ever hold
Speaking volumes when only death survives
Why is it of death we cannot grasp and behold?
Wasting and saving time sometimes
What exactly did we waste or save?
Can you ever hear those silent chimes?
What of life splendor to only say hi then wave?
Forever living for moments until
Moments never living till living we knew
Faking a living life for life living real
When did death becomes old for life anew?
Good times are always short-lived
Bad times... given lifespan perhaps too long
To otherwise choice less to believe
Have you life or simply death to belong?
