This Is Your Life

This Is Your Life

A Poem by Alex

 

Inhale, exhale.
Inhale, exhale.
Breathe.
This is your life.
Breathe it in.
Is it all you thought it’d be?
Are you happy with what you look
In the mirror and see?
Yes? No? Maybe?
You don't know, do you?
Inhale, exhale.
Inhale, exhale.
Breathe.
This is your life.

Feel your heart
Beat within your chest now.
Feel your blood
Course hotly through your veins.
This is your life.
Feel it slip…slip…slipping…
Away.
This is your life.
This is your time
To shine.
How will you use it?
Do you like how you’re using?
Do you like what you’re doing?
It’s fading fast;
Moments quickly slipping past.
This is your life.
This is your life.
How will you shine?
What will you leave behind?
This is your life.
Do you like what you see?
Are you who you want to be?
