A MINUTE TO MIDNIGHT




As the clock ticks so does the memories of the day
Memories of a man hustling to make earns meet
Memories of families mourning the death of a beloved brother
Memories of stress at the office and the challenges of life
Memories of a friend whom gave companionship to a man that is sad and miserable
Memories of loved ones, the joy and laughter they bring
Memories of the pains we go through each day as it makes us strong
Every second reflect the heartbeat of life we have left
A few seconds can change our memories for a life time
A second more takes us into a brand new day, unknown of its shortcoming
Every second in our life tends to be treasured
Every second the heart beats like lots of tiny star
That makes up the brightness of the sky and her beauty at night
It gives life to the night and makes her smile
It gives a man strength and hope that happiness is not far
As the clock bell ticks, so does life moments of time we spent on earth
It's a minute to midnight; i stare as life goes by
Conscious that another day is fast approaching by
