Afraid To Live

Life is precious

Time waits for noone

And what we have here

Is the inability to see

Exactly what true living means

And with that, find real meaning

As opposed to just merely existing

No taking chances or risks

Not seeing things through 

That is wanted or even dreamed

For what does one do

When it comes to not wasting

Any time at all

As we cannot rewind

 

Or do so after we die

For it must be done while we’re alive

Far less regret and instead

Getting feet and whole body wet

By doing what it takes

To truly live and just be

Not waiting but actionable

Not debating but taking steps forward

To move one’s life towards

The life always desired

So stop firing yourself

And hire yourself

Stop being less instead of more

And always work on the best project

As that will always be self

And see each day as a gift

As we should wake up and lift

Ourselves up and do so enough

 

Times that we reflect and shine

Passionately internalize and exercise

All choices possible to externalize

And live the reality that materialized

From just your thoughts alone

And followed up by fearless actions

For one’s life should be

A chain reaction of a said life

That leaves a legacy behind

And never waves goodbye

A life that freely gives

To you and from you

In parallel with light within

And less questions of why

Venturing out more and away from the crib

For many don’t want to die

But at the same time have been

So afraid to live
