On your deathbed

When you are on your deathbed, you won't be worried about how cool you were in high school, how you look, and how other people think of you. The only thing that matters at the end of the day is how you treated other people. You can't take your wealth or fame with you when you die. You can only take the memories and love you hold inside you. When you are about to die, you will have regrets. You will wish you got to go there, or keep that person. You will wish you were a better person, and that you made someone's life better. You will wish that you went for it when you had the chance. Right when you consider that we all will die, you will realize there is nothing to lose. So now, while you have the chance, go live in the moment. Go fight for your dreams because tomorrow you might not be able to. Go take a risk so you die knowing you did what you could, so you don't have to think about what could have been. Go and try your hardest to get what you want, so you aren't lying on your deathbed, wishing that you did something that you don't have any time left to do.

  • Your Game

    I've been here before; I know your ways.
    You think you have me in a bind? I wouldn't say the same.
    It comes so easy, moving so fast.
    But you don't suspect, that I do have a past.
    I'll play your little game. It's always the same.
  • This Encyclopedia


    Alexa what time is it? 
    Hey Siri, what's the weather for today?
    A calculator; a dictionary; an encyclopedia,
    ready at your convenience.
    But nobody is reading dictionaries for fun. 
  • He had a Dream

    He had a dream
    But not one of soaring skies and indigo seas.
    A man who believed
    That we could all live happily in harmony.
    He is long gone
    But his dream lives on.
    Come sisters and brothers
    Together we will stand
