Merely In Existance

Waiting to die is not living. I’m merely here simply existing To live is to love be happy and free To set out and conquer who I want to be Waiting to die is not living I’m merely here simply existing Life is to be lived to the fullest with no regrets To do all the things I’ve ever dreamed of but haven’t done yet Waiting to die is not living I’m merely here simply existing Time is of the essence and we must live in the presence So if I’m given the choice of dying or living or just simply existing I choose life and I’m going to live it everyday as if it was my last Never looking back or regretful about the past Life… I’m ready to live it I no longer want to be here just in existence I want to use what time in this life that I’ve been given to stop waiting to die And get busy living
