Borrowed Time Poem by Nudershada Cabanes

We live on borrowed time
Doing everything we can
With all the best that we can

A time will come
To return what was borrowed
Eventually life ceases

Everything comes to a halt
And we are like wilted leaves
Falling to the ground

Life like a wheel keeps turning
In the revolution of time
In the tree of life

We are the leaves that life sheds off
With each coming and passing of seasons
In the flow of time

Yet life gives us the chance
To make use of the borrowed time
To live our life to the fullest and shine our brightest

To become what we should become and dare to be
