I Live

Every second, every minute, every hour
Every day, every week, every month
Every year, every decade and every century
Every time I think about the present, past and future
Every time I blink I lose a mild moment
Every time I sink into my thoughts I drown in the deep dark dull ocean
Every time the pink leaves turn brown as I look outside
Every time the wrong person comes around from the wrong place
Every time the wrong person gets a crown I start to frown
Every time I could eat as much as a horse that hiked hungry in the green lavish country
Every time I could die from laughter
Every time I see people smile and care
I live
