Demanding World

Only Thing Mattered

By Katie LewisPublished 3 years ago 1 min read
Never Stops

Demanding world

Is moving forward

Speeding through time

Trying to keep up

Racing for nothing

Awake even while sleeping

Can’t stop thinking

Too late to slow down

In the end

Only one thing mattered

New life and love

    The true meaning of life indeed. Many of the others simply fade away.
