~e.h

Time always passes like a blur.

And so many people walk this earth,

With purpose in their minds,

But deep within their hearts they knew,

That what they’re living is a lie.

The alarm goes off at 6 a.m.

Like every other day,

Then they walk into the jobs they hate,

All because they need the pay,

All time does is take from them,

But it never seems to give,

Always waiting for the day to come,

When they finally start to live,

And I’m all too scared that one day soon,

I’ll become just like the rest,

Only walking with the crowd,

For the sole purpose of breathing,

That one day, I’ll look back on life,

At the opportunities that I missed,

And realize, I never truly lived,

All I did was just exist.
