Wasted Life

I think of all of the hours that I have wasted in my life,

Hours spent doing things that are ignored, dying my hair, or giving advice,

Many hours spent killing brain cells,

Drinking the drink and telling tales,

Making lists of things that I will never do,

Gossiping about who is doing who,

A lot of hours tied to my phone or computer screen,

Instead of viewing the real world, so much beauty unseen,

So much time spent complaining about myself,

Instead of reading the books on my shelf,

Now each second ticking by is like the stab of a knife,

I’m spending my final hour alive reviewing the wasted hours of my life.
