Life

Life
By Victoria Phillips

Life is precious, so don't waste it.
You think you've lived your life fully until you lose it.
And then after you lose your life,
You'll wish you had it back.
But by then it'll be too late,
To get a second chance.
Besides if you do take life for granted,
And take the chance of not living,
Your life will be underrated.

If you choose you can waste it.
However you won't have lived.
You will be empty,
A shell with no filling.
And you won't have lived on
Because you won't have created a legacy.
You won't have children,
Or anything leftover from what you have done in this world.

If you don't live, you won't love.
And you can't live if you haven't loved,
Or even suffered a loss.
So think about it,
Why waste life?
You only have one!
