A poem about how short life really is and that we shouldn't waste the time we have.
Life As It Is

Though nothing lasts forever,
This I know is true,
For the day when you stop loving,
It ends the world to you.
The life we have is fragile,
So delicate to the touch,
For when we start to give up,
We start to fall apart.
As we grow old, and weak, and weary,
There's nothing we can do,
We can only fade away,
And say goodbye to you.
The way we live our life,
Determines where we stand,
As no one lives forever,
We have to live for them.
