Pain and time
Are relatives of mine

Relative to us each
And each other

Or have you not noticed
Only a good life is short

It's been said life is short, but that's very wrong.

Life and Love

Life is short. Love is fast.
Life is long. Love is slow.
Love is Life, it can all pop just like a bubble,
so hold on to it till that last pop.

Season of Love

Why need a special date
Spread love each day
Life is short we all know
Yet fail to be what we are
Be a part of selfless love
Let every month simply be
Season of love, more love

Untitled

Life is short, or so they say. So we always ask for one more day. I believe that life never 
ends. In heaven or hell, the chose is yours. make the desition before the last world war.

Do you wonder and worry only to know futility? Will you continue to scurry until you learn humility? Life is short and often blurry. Summon your inner tranquility.

Candle in the wind,
candle's in the wind -

Pulsating a weak flame;
burning to a smoldering
end -

Premium Member Friendship

Build bridges for those willing to cross them. 
Give time to those willing to return it. 
Make memories with people who will also remember. 
Life is short, but true friendship is eternal.

Short Lists

Life is short;
Dare to love,
Dare to hate.

I love you,
You love me,
Love you all.

Don't let pass
Second chances,
Thrown away.

Thrive to live,
Live each day,
Reach each goal.

Premium Member LIFE

May we be blessed to heed the words of Paulo Coelho
knowing life is short and at times can be a bit prickly…

We need to

Kiss slowly, 
Laugh insanely 
Love truly 
And forgive quickly

Life Is Short,Make the Most Out of It

LIFE IS SHORT,MAKE THE MOST OUT OF IT
 Life is short and the world is an ocean of unfriendly people...
 A sense of humor is the only paddle you  have got....
 so hold on it and keep conquering that tide

Premium Member Complaining

Yes, it is true!

Life is short my fellow human

But

It becomes even shorter 

When

We waste much of valuable time

Complaining about it!

AFTER ALL IS LIFE




Life is short, brief, fleeting, a breath, anyway...
One day, a child, the next,
 an adult, and then, the end ?
It all seems like a crazy dream,
but it is wonderful...
because in truth, that is life

Love and Death

Life is short there's not a soul who doesn't know this. So when we kiss, know this; It's only for a breath. Death wipes the smiles and defiles what love has so graciously given.

Visibility

VISIBILITY
Are you seeing the unseen of visibility
This is the last chance of infinity
Life is short and deep in conspiracy
Let's talk about the sensibility

LIFE  IS SHORT 


Life is short
They declare and
I’ m inclined to agree
With that
 
Short, perhaps, to make
Us happy
BUT
Exceedingly long 
To make us unhappy
I may ADD!

Life

Life is short
Who hasn’t said that before
Each decade gets smaller
Time runs away
When we don’t grab it
And hop on
And mold it
Into images from thoughts
a fun-filled passionate life
To live and to die for
