Naive

Naive

There's no after
and there's no before
You're living now
and now only.
Isn't it strange
that the amount of our nows
don't make a then?
And the things we plan
might never happen?
We have so much faith in time
That there's going to be a tomorrow
and a next week
Even if it doesn't exist yet.
We are living a hallucination
we are naive and courageous
But time is stronger
and has the power to crush us.
Yet,
we live.
