In The Blink Of An Eye

Loved or Forever Shook?

Ever wish that you could talk with someone who’s already gone?

Tell them about your day;what’s going right and what’s going wrong?…

Leading you to drowning your thoughts in a song?

Listening to it over and over until you believe they can hear and feel it from above?

Life is way too short to pause or question your love

Cause in the blink of an eye it can all change

In the split of any second your family, friends, or the LOVE OF YOUR LIFE can evaporate

At the end of your life you won’t wonder about the risks you took…

You’ll be thinking about the words you never said or feelings you held back; leaving you forever shook.

About the Creator

I focus on writing pieces that help those when they may not be able to reach the surface on their own when drowning in this thing called life. It's easier said than done to tell yourself it'll be okay; so, allow my writing to speak to you.
