Wishing our lives away

Looking at the calendar the count-down begins,
another writer pushing their story to the end.
You circle the date with a smile, and begin the long wait.
You eagerly await, marking off each day.
Nights before you pump yourself up,
and before you know it the day's gone.
And it's night again.
And the day you look so forward to has come to it's bitter end.
Do you ever feel like maybe you just want to enjoy the moment instead of wishing it was a different day? Are we really so eager to wish out lives away?
