Time

Time

A Poem by FireFly15
"

Time is a precious thing and way to many people waste it carlessly. Please take my advice and live life to its fullest.

"

 

 

 

Time...

 

Time is a cruel thing.

It takes away your beauty....your youth....your health....

It attacks you head on with no mercy.

It takes from you the very thing that most people strive to maintain.

Outward appearance.

 

But....

 

What do you gain from it?

Wisdom? Understanding? Maturity?

Most of us take for granted the beauty of getting older.

We only look at the things we loose, instead of the wonderful things we gain.

Life isn't all about youth and beauty.

Its about time and how well you spend it.

Live life to its fullest and live happily ever after.

another amazing poem :) you are talented. I love the ending on this poem because it is so true. Majority of us take life for granted, and every second we waste we are running out of time so we should live our life so that if we died and were able to look back we could say that we were satisfied with how we lived. I also have a poem called time if you wanna check it out lol, not as good as this but still :) any ways, Good write

Yes very true. I wish people would stop looking at 'getting older' as the enemy.. I also think that if we all threw away our clocks and watches and just forgot about time, we would all be much happier.

Very good writing once again.

Like everything else with time comes balance... we lose and gain as you so eloquently pointed out... again your work displays such wisdom that everyone can learn from.

Originally my poems were meant to be inspirational. Althought, as of late they have become more of a venting outlet. I think I need to sort out some problems of my own before I can help others with th.. more..
