A medley of thoughts


DEATH, DESPAIR AND HOPE

Whenever someone I know passes away,
In my heart a dull ache comes to stay.
It reminds me how each one of us,
Is so caught up in our own world,
We always want to be one plus,
But we forget the bubble might just burst.
Do we even know what's round the next corner,
Is anyone ever a real mourner.
Some people are worrying about what other people say,
Some people are just sitting there planning their day.
Even those closest move on and thats scary,
That you were thereone day is just another memory.
Life keeps flowing on like a stream.
People who were an integral part of life are now a dream.
I know it's practical for life to move on,
You cant keep living your life depressed and down,
But it makes you stop and think!
Why am I running around so?
For tomorrow I might just go.......
Go away to an unknown land and leave everything behind.
So it is very important to control my mind,
To use each day in all it's glory,
Enjoy each moment,so I am never sorry,
Be true to myself and love my loved ones in a way,
That I should never need to say,
" I wish I had", "I wish I could"
Instead just do what I can,
To live life to its fullest extreme,
And thus be a complete being.
Enjoy, Love, Laugh and Share,
And drive away all my cares!!!!!!!
