Second By Second

Second by second Minute by minute Hour by hour Our lives tick away What are we doing? Living life to the fullest Or merely Plodding along Hypnotized binge watching In a stupor On the couch all day Or multi-tasking Many irons in the fire Go, go, go Tired in the morning Tired at night Before we know it We are at death's door For what? To reach a goal To show the world Who we are? And what we got? Instant gratification? Stop the insanity! Save as many seconds As many minutes As many hours As you can And spend them On your family Your friends Your loves Your God And you will find True happiness Less regrets When we reach Death's door
