Poem 4

I’m here now 

Tomorrow I don’t know  

 

It feels stupid  

The idea of being scared  

of something you can’t control 

But still it’s the most common fear 

In every human being standing in the Earth 

 

The cruel nature of the uncertainness 

You spend every minute in your life 

Getting ready for the end of it 

 

Stress in everyday life 

Doesn’t let us see the beauty around us 

Spending time with people you love, 

Being hold endlessly by a mother, 

Sharing personal jokes with dad, 

Watching “The Sound of Music” once more 

Looking at his face until I can’t forget any detail 

Listening the playful laugh of your nephew 

 

At the end of the day 

What is really important is 

What makes you feel so alive 

You think you’ll live eternally 

 

But the truth is death is going to catch you 

You don’t have the privilege or curse to know when 

 

Just live well, just live
