Times like these are like all others's around me: everchanging.

Seconds pass, mininutes pass, years pass, all wasted.

Regret consumes me, along with a longing.

A longing to remember, a longing to love, a loning to be loved.

All of this time wasted that I could have remembered, I could have loved, I could have been loved.

No. What could all of these regrets of wasted time mean now?

Life moves onward, time moves onward, uncaring of those who fall back.

I must move onwars, and so I, like the seasons shall pass.


The author's comments:

The reason that this poem is so short is because I wanted to communicate that life is fleeting. Life should not be spent thinking of all of the things that we could have done. Instead, spend it thinking, "What can I do?" "What will I do?" Then do it.
