Live Until You Can't

Live Until You Can't

A Poem by Victoria Scott
"

This is a poem more on looking more positively on life...and not taking any moment for granted.

"
Open your eyes to make life matter
Leave your mark
Save the world
Live your life and your dreams

Dance until you can't
Sing until you can't 
Realize that everyday is one second closer to the end of your song.
Capture the spark that fell from the sun
And savor the rain on your face.
Make every word matter
And every look special.

Dance until you can't
Sing until you can't
Realize that everyday is one second closer to the end of your song.
Take heart every sound
And record it to play on the rainy days.
Remember each magical feeling as the song fades away.
Each note in a song
Each word in the verse.
Because every second counts.

Dance until you can't 
Sing until you can't
Realize that everyday is one second closer to the end of your song.
Don't be surprised when the silence overtakes your world.
Live until you can't.

Hi,

You have done it. I'm usually the sickly perky one in the room, but My reflex to this is to rip off a cute stuffed animals head and throw it at you!

Which is good! it reminds me that I have many parts of me that still needs evolving!!
