What if life were counted by the breaths we take? How would you live your life?

What if life were counted
by the breaths we take?
Would you take life for granted?
Would people still act fake?
Would you choose to get angry
or control the way you feel,
so when you breathe
you could be sincere?
And how would you live,
would you continue to wait?
To do the things
you really want to do.
Accomplish your dreams
be the real you!

    I think our lives are counted by the breaths we take. We don’t know how many breaths we will have so it’s best to take advantage of every one of them.
