Now

There’s an ineffable abundance in my soul,
I’m on cloud nine,
A rollercoaster high,
A whirlwind of emotions,
A rapturous delight.

But there’ll be a time,
When this ecstasy will be ousted from me,
Like how every life ends with the last breath,
How every ‘hello’ ends with a ‘goodbye’,
Or how every beginning always has an end.

For reality is a bitter truth,
But at this very moment,
My time is here,
My time is now,
And life’s never been better.
