For all I know, I'm alive today.
Luckier than millions of humans
who didn't make it this far.
Alive; at this exact moment.
The next? Who knows.
You say I must seize the day.
Take risks and fight.
Be positive and hope for the best.
Stay strong and never give up.
Take my chances.
Be patient and humble.
Chase my desires.
You say
I must enjoy myself
and celebrate life.
Oh,
for all I know,
I can,
if I simply choose to,
in the exact next moment,
join those aforementioned millions.
