Someday
The saying goes “before you die,
your life flashes before your eyes.”
They say it'll only last a second, just one
but that's just what they don't know
it lasts forever, like an endless sky,
a sky that will forever grow
of images and memories of life passing by.
I guess you can say that I'm mad,
mad at the fact that I didn't do everything I wanted
but I can't stay mad,
not with so much beauty in the world that's flaunted.
Occasionally it can be too much to be taken in
because such beauty is taken for granted
but I recall that I have to relax, to stop holding it,
to be no longer enchanted
and all I can be is appreciative and thankful
for every single instant of my stupid diminutive life.
You likely don't know what I mean since life's tranquil
for you that is, but don't be concerned about it
you will someday know what I mean, I guarantee it.
