Truly Living
What if living isn’t dreaming
Of how life will be someday
Wishing for something better
Than what you have already anyway
What if living isn’t waiting
For your life to truly “begin”
Watching as the world spins around you
Refusing to let happiness in
But what if living is life
As you have it right now, right here
Without the coveted future
That you hold dear
Of being perfectly imperfect
And completely incomplete
Taking time to embrace opportunities
Moving forward, moving both of your feet
Maybe it’s every moment today
That ultimately counts
When the things we want most
Aren’t there in any amounts
When we’re leaning on our God
Pleading Him to fill the void inside
Realizing that our lives aren’t really about us
About the loneliness we’ve felt, the tears we’ve cried
Knowing that the only option is to turn to Him
To pour out our love to others and never stop giving
Maybe, just maybe this is when we’re
Truly living
