In honor of how to live it.

Before the light becomes midnight at the garden of decisions past

Hold on tight to all that gives you happiness or a smile

Grip them tightly as if they are something that will never last

Remember to be willing to walk that untraveled mile

Give chances to the ones who have done something wrong

Remembering that perfection is owned by no man in this time

Enjoy that melodic memory brought back to life by that sweet or sad song

And bear down, push forward, and seize onto life like it's a crime

Wrap your hands around everything that life offers in this place

And hold on until you've shaken it for all it's got

But don't dare live life like it's a race

It'll be over sooner than you're ready, or hit a time that's already not

Life, it's surreal

It's not for the weak of heart

But that's the unfortunate deal

And why when it comes to truly living, some never really start
