Facing Mortality

10 Words

Face Reality

In the span of seconds
We see ourselves
Be ourselves

Destroy ourselves...

In the span of a lifetime
We must make
We must justify

We must elevate...

In the time between actions
In the time between reactions

We must face what we

Are.
Will be.
Must be.
Always were.

Be.

Horizon break
