Time is fleeting, the days we share with one another, all melding together to create one jumbled up memory.

They say you're never garneted tomorrow, to treasure each moment as if it's your last.

No one really knows how true this is, till we're faced with something much more, vast.

You don't really bother to take notice of how soft the grass is, or how colorful the sky will be.

You skip over the significance of a butterfly passing by, and miss out on how beautiful the hum of a bee. 

Fear of the unknown, it can be the downfall of us all, especially when we feel like there'll never be time to atone. 

There's so much to a life we take for granted.

Like the smell of spring in the air, or the sounds of a cat being petted.

Things that seem so unimportant, suddenly take on a whole new meaning.

You start to notice the stars shine brighter, or how colorful the sunlight is, stars falling through the sky, their tails streaking.

Friends and companions mean so much more, their company, their jokes, however poor.

You take time to enjoy the various flavors of food, and become more daring.

Spend time with those loved ones, talking and sharing.

We lose track in the beauty of the world, thinking that we'll always have it all, always have someone to hold.

Life isn't without its hardships, and there's times plenty when we feel like we've lost it all.

Something worth remembering though, is we've not lost the battle, till we fall.

So, live each day to its fullest, cherish life's wonders, even if it seems foolish.

For time is fleeting, gone within a flash.

We never know when that end is coming, only after it's already passed.
