Our Ending Lives

As a day passes in your ending life
You sit and think of your next stage
Never considering that this archive
Might have tomorrow as your last page

Whats life but a bridge to and infinity
We all know that but we need a slap
To get us back to this reality
And lead us straight on a messy map

Memories fade and feelings vanish
But whats in our hearts will break the rules
Let it out don’t think its childish
Sometimes tears are more precious than jewels
