What Is a Lifetime?
March 27, 2010
Is a lifetime
measured in sighs?
If it is,
I have lived a million years.
Is a lifetime
measured in love?
If it is,
I have lived a few short moments.
Is a lifetime
measured in broken promises?
If it is,
I have lived so incredibly long.
Is a lifetime
measured in happiness?
If it is,
I have lived an average life.
Maybe a lifetime
is measured in strength
to go through another day.
For when that strength has expired,
so has your will to live.
