Time Passing By

Each tick of the clock,
every second, every minute,
brings us closer to Die..
we all know that!
we all know, 
and yet, 
most of us are just Existing..!
Repeating each day,
stuck in a loop,
Like a hamster on a wheel..
hurrying to meet deadlines,
rushing to complete chores,
striving hard to meet targets..
Always on a GO!

Do you recollect,
when was the last time,
you abandoned all thoughts,
switched off your phone,
and allowed yourself to just breathe?
to sit back and relax,
without feeling guilty?

Remember, you are more than your achievements,
remember, you are more than your work and job and career,
remember, life is meant for living, NOT existing!
and remember, 
every once in a while,
You need to break the silent cycle of life,
to discover or create or Steal,
Some Moments Of Magic!
