Lightening Speed

I'm in the seventh month of the new year", days passed by in a flash, like lightning speed, " Youth is fading, I'll be gone "soon" I fear, living life in full is my greatest need. Father time won't always be on my side, each second and minute must somehow count. I must learn to dream big,and walk in pride, taking life by the horns, ready to mount So today I choose to live in the now, and I'm saying farewell to things of old. That my dearest friend, is my solemn vow. I have to leave the what if's in the cold. Life in itself is such a precious gift, This way of thinking caused my soul to shift. 7-3-19 Alexis Y.
