Life
Lebohang 2008 (South Africa)
Does it really matter?
Is it valuable? It can't be
Replaced. It can be lost in
many ways when death is
busy following and hovering
around you
I have been grateful for these
years I have lived for. Every day
escapingthe long sharp claws
of death hovering around me
God keeps protecting me from
those claws. I'm thankful for the
people I have met , the ones that left ,
the ones that stayed and the ones
that are here
TIK TOK THE TIME NEVER STOPS
