“The great gift of human beings is that we have the power of empathy.” — Meryl Streep


moments pass in the blink

of an eye

and just like that, a

memory dies

today feels short and

tomorrow, nigh

grasping a moment is do,

or die

but only when wasted,

time seems to fly

each day coming is

another goodbye.
