so many things..so little time

there are many dreams i wish to fulfill..
many chances i want to run after to,
many moments i prayed to last forever,
many incidents i hoped would never end..
but time kept on running,
and life has to keep up to it..
parting although painful, is a new beginning i must take.
i wish i could just hold on to what i already have,
to who i have loved and i have taken as a part of my whole being..
but in vain i'm left to realize, i am no more powerful than a small ant..
no matter how tight i hold on, if it isn't meant to happen, it just wouldn't be..
and behind bright lights of laughter and outrageousness that can cover up my emptiness,
i just have to accept the most painful step; reality.
