Time

poem by: Russell Springman
Written on Oct 03, 2015

Time is definitely not on our side,
as we're all here for a very short ride.
We all tend to live our life so damn fast,
that we fail to realize nothing's here to last.
Some don't have the opportunity to grow old,
and so the stories of those are then left untold.
You have to live life beyond your wildest dream,
and don't give up until your body runs out of steam.
                                                  R.Springman
