If I Can Die Tomorrow.. Why Not Live Today

If I Can Die Tomorrow.. Why Not Live Today

A Poem by PoeticFury
"

Live for the moment

"
If I can walk down the street and for no reason take a bullet to the chest.
Why can't I climb that mountian or get that rush from pushing that motorbike over 90 putting my mind and body to the test.
If I can die in my sleep.
Why can't I live my dream in the present time.
Like exploring the depths of the ocean in sight knowing and accepting that I can drown.
If I can die from a heart attack or get harmed from poison ivy.
Why not get something that can remind me.
Why not get a tattoo that may have poison.
On this issue I can forever have words to say but allow me to ask you.
If you can die tomorrow... Why can't you live today?

VERY PHILOSOPHICAL IN THE LINES...AND I LIKE THE SAYING...I'M WRITING SOMETHING ABOUT IT RIGHT NOW AND GIVES US A PERSPECTIVE...AS I READ THE LINES OF THIS ONE....PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS LOOKING INTO THE FUTURE...PLANNING THEIR RETIREMENT FOR THE GRAND OLD AGE...SO THEY CAN LIVE FOR TOMORROW AND NOT LIVE FOR TODAY...LIKE ALL THE DAYS BEFORE IT ARE IMMATERIAL IN NATURE...

Heaven has no fury like a writer with emotion. I love writing more than I love life. Why? Cause writing is my life, and without it I have no life. I enjoy music, and meeting new people. Also like most.. more..
