expiration date

how unfair is it

that there are people, kids

living their lives with a limit

people that wake up with a note

"you have an expiration date"

how upsetting is it

that

there are bright stars;

brilliant galaxies of people

that are confined to a room,

being told "no,

don't go out. you have

an expiration date"

claire was

a wake up call for

me, and for my friends;

do not live your life in fear of death

instead, live life because of death

there's only one shot at this thing we call living

don't mess it up
