So many things I take for granted. So many passers by I miss. So many moments I tend to pass. So many laughs I have wasted. So many hugs I ache for. So many friends I have forgotten. So many rhythms my body never bounced to. So many kisses my lips have fled. So many heartaches I never felt. So many thank you’s I never delivered. So many warm moments I made cold. So many people slept by my sides. So many songs I never sang   along to. So many roses I never inhaled. So many birds I never flew with. So many journeys never witnessed my first step. So many enemies I forgot to forgive. So many moments I spent alone. So many days unaccounted for. So many souls i never lent a a helping finger. So many girls I sent crying. So many girls I never shed a tear for. So many girls I miss. So many sunsets gone I will never witness again. So many little steps my son took I will never see again. So many days of dancing in the rain gone dry. So many ideas swept away by the running water of my shower. So many faces forgotten in a blink of an eye. So many promises to my mom gone without any actions. So many changes destroyed by my comfort zone. So many waves never caught. So many yearly resolutions moved to the next. So many diets that made me fatter. So many destinations never discovered. So many ants never watched as they build their kingdoms.

So many things I know I have the time for, I know I can, I know we can, I know it has been done by many, when will it be my time to enjoy the joys of this wonderful world of ours.

When will I rise to the occasion and witness gods greatness and forget peoples silly remarks and actions. There is more to be done with this body of mine that be another brick in the wall.

I will cherish every moment and every breath I take, for If I learn to do that, I have learnt the real meaning of the small things that go unnoticed.

Embrace life.
