Life

Our eyes are closed to the world not seeing how short it is
until a life is taken from the world before his time is done
we go on day by day playing it safe worrying about little things
not seeing the world as a whole.
being upset that our life isn't what we want it to be
instead of living life to the fullest
loving it
seeing it
trying new things
people don't think they have the time
or resources to do so
but if you take an extra minute
to stop and say hey
take a trip
walk a different way
shake a new hand
smile
and most of all love
love until your heart hurts
make a friend everyday
learn something new
don't die without wisdom
and don't die with out passing something on
teach someone something new
so that when you are gone
that they will remember you
by a smile
by a word
by a shake of the hand
put your name on an empty wall
and let your voice be heard
don't die silent
and when you do leave this world
don't be unknown.
