Carpe Diem: Seize the Day


Live your life how you wish,

Don’t waste a single moment.

Tomorrow may very well be your last,

So live life to the fullest.

 

No one can tell you how you should live,

Do with it what you wish.

So take all that life will give.

Accept it with a flourish.

 

Don’t regret how you spend your time,

Rather enjoy it.

Look back at life with a critical eye,

And see that you don’t regret a single moment.

 

You’re only young once,

Blink and time will be gone.

Before your time is up,

Live life to the fullest.

 

So remember this lesson,

Remember it well.

Carpe Diem is my wish,

That you will live life well.

 

My best wishes,

Seize the Day
