Future....
Does it scares me...of course not
the reason is because I don't believe in it...
What we call the future is the today in which we live...
In my mind what scares me is the past for i cannot change it
The future is just the present that i'm constructing now
What i do today will become the past yet it will affect the tomorrow its a well known fact...
Complicated, I may be, yes...
However I just don't believe in the future...
I believe every moment that passes is sacred and it can become my last
The tomorrow is uncertain and it may never happen
However the past it did happen, it cannot be erased...
And the present is what we do today and what we create...
I'm more afraid of the now, of what I'm this instant
Every-ones worries about an imaginary future that may very well not exist
Everyone is moving forward yet I'm in a stand still
I have no hopes for the future nor dreams or fantasies i want to fulfill
the reason is because I already have everything i want which is the now...
Ignorant for others i may be
But the ignorant are others for me
Because future is just a word that gives others a reason to live
Yet i believe that those, who don't live the present as they should, because they worry too much about the future, should just die
To worry about something that we don't know is gonna happen is just a waste of time...
