Life Is Now

I rush and run to chase the day,

with endless things to check and pay.

The clock keeps ticking, I'm never still,

a daily struggle up the hill.

I missed the breeze, the morning light,

the colors fading into night.

A laugh, a glance, a moment's grace,

all lost inside my frantic pace.

But life is now, not when I’m done,

not someday soon, but in the sun.

So let the world spin if it must,

I stop to breathe and build my trust.

The joy is now, not far ahead,

stitched into the life I slowly thread.
