Everyone wants something <br />and though it makes no sense <br />we all have our excuses <br />for sitting on the fence <br />Content to wait till later <br />for what could be today <br />watching all of those tomorrows <br />turn to yesterdays <br />We never fully understand <br />how different life could be <br />if only we would take a chance <br />and act upon our dream <br />The days turn into weeks and months <br />the months too soon to years <br />those dreams get buried in the ruts <br />and all but disappear <br />Precious time is wasted <br />on making do with less <br />afraid to take the leap of faith <br />and find true happiness.<br /><br />Mahfooz Ali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/time-is-wasted/
