Till It’s Gone


It’s not often that we as all appreciate what we have in life
Usually it takes something painful, sad or tragic to make us come alive
It can be hard to recover or its just way too late
But maybe its just fate

It’s as simple as not showing someone how much you care
Then the next day you wake up to find they are not there
Either by choice or something as cruel as death
Growing up with all your parents wealth
You tend to forget the real important things in life and you become corrupt
Then again it all can go the next day by being robbed or just going bankrupt

Being able to run, jump, hop and smile
Some people haven’t been able to do that in quite a while
Probably because these abilities were taken away
The ability to run, jump, hop and smile all faded away
And yet again that’s just how life can unfold
So everything you can do and have should be treated like gold

While you are young and you are strong you can do anything u imagine
But when you get old all you can do is imagine
There are no promises to waking up being the same as yesterday
So everyday should be a thankful day
Cause life has its ways of rapidly changing when you least expect it for the worst

So take a bit of advice from a gentleman’s thinking
Show appreciation to your love ones or even the ones who give u a little bit of liking
Enjoy and treasure the abilities to walk, talk and even something as simple as love
Because tomorrow doesn’t guarantee none of the above
