462. Sitting Alone

Sitting alone gives pause to think
The world still revolves without our being
Life existed long before we where
It seemed anew with fresh eyes we were seeing
What lies outside this life is unknown
Regardless of what books or scholars can say
Each of us will learn the ultimate truth
When we close both eyes on our passing day
Set aside your concerns for a moment
Despite the pain and suffering you may feel
Be thankful for what life has given in silence
Despite the trials and tribulations that are so real
Remember as each day goes so do you
There is no stopping the ending when it’s here
Enjoy life for each and every moment
And hold close those you love so dear
