Last Minute
I live in a world where resolutions
Are given at the story’s last chapter.
Where heroes and princes save damsels
And maidens at the sundial’s last hour.
Where bright minds discover
Innovations by the observation’s last discernment.
I’m part of a universe where realizations
Gush in at life’s last moment.
Where assignments, projects and even examinations
Are completed at the school bell’s last second.
And where love is only found and cherished
by the heart’s last chance.
