Death is inevitable;
but when it comes for the young,
it truly puts life into perspective.
If your life flashed in front of you,
what would be your last thoughts?
When the final light appears,
will you have lingering regrets?
The clock is ticking;
the hands of time won’t reveal
when they will stop for you.
Your days are numbered
so you must make each one count.
You won’t get yesterday back,
and tomorrow isn’t promised.
Today is all you have
to make the change
to live with purpose.
It could all end in a split second;
in the blink of an eye,
you could see the face of your maker.
So when your time runs out,
will it have amounted to something
or just leave you out of breath?
Will every minute have mattered,
every action been intentional?
Don’t waste one more moment;
make your life worth something.
