fullest

5 1 2
                                    

a heartbeat;
in the silence of the world,
it is not alone,
never will be.

like fireflies in june;
it's beautiful and mesmerising,
it grows everyday
right under your eyes;
do you notice it?

the memories it will make,
the experiences;
you can feel them in your guts,
you, you're the protagonist.

to make a change,
to make it better;
for everyone else, for yourself.
it needs a meaning.
i don't want to be forgotten.

you idly get up,
it starts over, like always.
tomorrow is a new day,
don't hold yourself back.

live a full life;
one to be read about in books,
to inspire films,
to be told at campfires;
you define it.
