Balance

November 21, 2017

Everything you've ever seen

Shall one day fall apart at the seams

Your friendship

Your marriage

But don't feel embarrassed

It's natural

It's normal

So don't be so formal

Accept the destruction,

That is this production,

We all call life

Embrace the space that you occupy

Because one day it will petrify

And live each day

As if it's your last

Because life goes by

So very fast

Remember to breathe in

Breathe out

And have no doubt

That you will stumble

And everything crumbles

It's the cycle of life

It's beautiful

Not pitiful

Find comfort in the fact

That nothing lasts

And every second that's passed

Is now in the past

Enjoy this moment

And the next

Because one day

There won't be any left
