Life is Short

I used to live
My life as if
I'm gonna stay forever;
No plans, no goals,
No clear future.
A happy-go-lucky girl
A one-day-millionaire
Until it hit me one day
That forever's a lie,
For one day, I will die.
Fear took over,
And I started to dream,
Asked a lot of what-if's
And started to live my dream.
Days seem too short,
And found myself on knees,
Begging the One Above,
To grant me at least ten more years.
