Tahnee's Life

“Life”

Hold sacred things close, your loved ones closer,

You never know when you time has elapsed,

We live as if were invincible, immortal,

When the fact is we are the weakest species on the planet,

Our knowledge and adaptability are what keeps us alive…..

But watch out…..we could be the next extinction!

Not by the monster under your bed...Nor the demon inside your head.

Not by the plague or brimstone but by our own race going criminally

insane. Little by little we lose pieces of ourselves as if we are taking bits so

that we fit better with those around us

I do not believe for one second any of us truly know who we are - who we

were as a whole person before the world started taking pieces away.
