One Life Poem by Natasa To

One Life

We wake beneath a single sky,

A breath, a blink, and time slips by.

Yet in this fleeting spark we own,

A world of joy is gently sown.



One life — no more, no less to spend,

No rewinds, edits, second end.

But oh, the beauty it can hold,

In stories lived, not merely told.



The morning sun on quiet skin,

The laughter shared with closest kin.

A walk, a word, a song, a sigh —

A moment's peace beneath the sky.



Not every path will rise or shine,

But even cracks let through divine.

For happiness is not all light,

It's found in how we meet the night.



A kindness done with no reward,

The courage to step toward the storm.

The strength to dance when days feel small,

To rise again, and still give all.



This one life — brief, but burning bright,

Is not a race, but pure delight.

So let us live, and love, and be,

With open hearts and minds set free.



For happiness is not a place,

But how we move through time and space.

In every breath, a chance anew —

One life to live, and joy to choose.
