24

Sometimes not enough,

Others far too many.

Twenty four hours in a day.

Wake up bright and ready to live!

Sometimes dragging this husk around

One day closer to decay.

Life can be so taxing

And hurt just too much,

For days end I pray.

Life can be so wonderful

Full of joy and I don’t want

The end of today.

So tomorrow bring me vigor

And a thickening of skin

To become good clay.

Twenty four hours

Again coming to a close,

I just need your promise

To bring me twenty four more.

– Vagabond Prophet
