Life
It may be precious
That doesn't give an excuse
To sit back idly
Just watching it walk by you
Your parents told you that you were
Precious when you were younger
In their own unique actions and phrases
But that didn't stop you
From going on a bicycle, falling down
Scraping your knees and elbows
Getting up and creating a cycle
Until you learned how to stay on
So if you could do it back then
Why can't you do it now?
Talk to new people at work or at school
Try new sports
Create new goals
You'll find yourself growing
Learning new skills as you go along
Soon life won't be walking past you
It'll be running behind you
Trying to catch up
Trying to drown you
With it's worries and fears
What about time?
What about the past?
What about the future?
Don't ask these questions
Don't let life make you ask these questions
Live in the moment
As precious as life may be,
It's not supposed to hold you back.
You can do anything you set your mind to.
