A TIME TO LIVE AND DIE

There is a time to live, and die
A time to laugh and to cry
A time for beginnings, and a time for endings
A time to cherish, and a time to make amends

We are born with an unknown destiny
Every moment is precious, we cannot afford to wait
For in a moment our time can pass
And leave memories that forever last

We have dreams and goals to achieve
But time fleets, and we believe
That every second counts
No turning back, no time to rethink

We chase after wealth, success and fame
In the end, none of that will remain
Only moments shared, the love given
Will stand beyond the grave.
