Thinking

Our lives only last

Two minutes long

But we retake that breath.

Why? Sometimes I wonder.

Well hopefully our lives last a bit longer than two minutes literally speaking but in the context of the universe, yes it probably does feel that short. If things such as space or even the earth could talk to us I wonder what they’d say about how short our lives seem to them.
Sometimes I too wonder what mine or anyone else’s reason to live each day is. Not necessarily in a depressing way just a curious one. To me it can feel like the answer is sometimes because that’s just what you do and no one is really thinking about it. Kind of raises the question does someone need a specific reason all the time or not?

Since we can only hold our breath for so long why do we breathe?
