Four Minutes
My life it seems is like a train track,
For a minute everything seems fine,
Than I get the choice to change tracks,
And at the crossroads I realize the time,
The time is four minutes from when I got here,
And four minutes away from when I leave,
Four minutes from when I decided,
Four minutes was all I would need,
At four minutes I saw the time I wasted,
Was four minutes of my life ,
And when I realized all the time I had used up,
My four minutes had run out,
And now I’m four minutes away,
From knowing that four minutes was always enough,
To realize that only four minutes,
Was enough time to change my life,
And that life is only four minutes
Away from the time I will see the end,
And see that the time I have left is forever,
So four minutes to forever seems hard to comprehend.
