Parables

I'll race you to the end of time
so we can cross the finish line to know,
the meaning of it all.
You look at me so confused
like you got better things to do
and that's alright.
Sometimes I don't realize
the moments I waste
just trying to get through.
Don't get the taste
because I swallow too soon.
Please don't tell me
you haven't felt this too.

That life's too short
and that's a blessing for a few.

Don't fix your eyes
on what's behind.
Realize
we won't make it out alive.
Grab ahold
of the ones you love
don't let go.
Because life's too short to go it alone.

I can't steady my hand.
The thought of your absence lingers.
Ease me from this state of mind.
Always walking a thin line.
Parables to avoid sweet lies,
I believe them.
I'm drowning in the shallow end.
All these thoughts have made me grow numb.
Can't escape no matter how fast I run.
We all must face
when our time has come.

Life's too short and that's a blessing for some.

Don't fix your eyes
on what's behind.
Realize
we won't make it out alive.
Grab ahold
of the ones you love
don't let go.
Because life's too short to go it alone.
