I sit awake every night
asking what I did wrong.
I stare away every day
wondering when I'll be gone.
I made some wrong choices
and for that I regret.
But why do we live our lives
with constant arguments and threats?
Life is such a precious thing
that can be taken any time.
So why do we sit here
and bicker and whine?
There is so much we can live up to,
so much that we can have.
Tell me why do we stay here
and talk about being mad?
We need to make good out of what we got,
and just forget that we ever fought.
I know it hurts
when you don't feel love,
but next time you're scared,
just look up above.
There is someone there
keeping an eye on you;
watching you while you work
and while you sleep too.
Some feelings we have
can never be understood,
but while our time is still here,
let's just be good.
*In loving memory of T.J.F*
