For a short while
We have breath
Our hearts beat
We feel
We love
We hurt
We cry
For one short while only
Before our breath
Stops.
For a short while
We have breath
Our hearts beat
We feel
We love
We hurt
We cry
For one short while only
Before our breath
Stops.

Time is fleeting
Hours are passing
Days are ticking by
Skin is ageing
Eyes are straining
Life is passing by
Heart is beating
Emotions feeling
Until the hands
Stand still

I birthed
I cried
I laughed
I lived
I loved
I thrived
I hoped
I wished
I prayed
I dreamed
I worked
I saved
I shared
And finally
After one
Fleeting day
I died
