Why is it that no one stops for a minute?

Not to listen

Not to talk

Everyone just goes about life thinking that this is it.

Why should they bother?

To visit family

Hang with  friends

Who has the time anymore?

You are selfish

You live a life that is just about you!

All you want

Is to make some money

Meet someone

Fall in love.

But to do that

Do you really have to give up

Your family?

Your friends?

Because you know one day

You're gonna be really happy

You're gonna have

That great job

That white picket fence

Those 2.5 children

Then. . .

You find out that your grandfather died.

Then all you feel is sorry for yourself

You tath one person

You tell yourself that you should've seen them more.

That you need to appreciate those moments.

But really you just go back to your everyday self.

After a while. . .

You don't think about it

But then it happens again. . .

And again. .  And again

Until no one is left in your family

But you

The question is. . .

Who will mourn you?

If you don't appreciate the little moments then

Being with your family,

It won't matter

Because the only things you will have left

Is marriage and death.
