Right now you are living

And that living is enough.

Yes, now you are living

And that living can be tough

On even the best of us.

You might cry every day

And breathe through your nights

But today is the day

That brings those gentle lights

To meet your open eye.

This evening you are happy

And the world goes on spinning

But you are here, happy

And clouds are thinning

As the phone is ringing.

They died an hour ago

In bed with breakfast

And all those years ago

When life was steadfast

You thought of this day

And how long it might last.

Right now you are living

And living is enough.
