Poetry

I just wanted to share some poems that I have written in the recent months. The first one is entitled " 22", I wrote it the night before I turned 23 because I had a realization that 22 still seems young. Before you know it, 23 turns into 30...and so on and so forth. Then we refer back to 22 as the good days, and how quick those days flew by. But I am living them right now, so I'm trying to take advantage!
The second one is entitled " Viva Europa". I wrote this while I was at a cafe one morning, while enjoying my yummy pastry with no remorse.
Just thought that I would share, enjoy!

22

We are living the days we will one day refer back to
These are the good days,
These are the good times
No ties, no baggage
Nothing to hold us back.
We define the definition of freedom
We dream of the mysteries that tomorrow holds,
We attempt to construct our path in life.
One day we will look back,
And wonder why we didn’t live for today
Why we didn’t live it up just little bit more
In the good old days.
But we can’t change what we don’t know,
So we just keep on dreaming.

Viva Europa

When living in Europe
Eat up
…and don’t feel guilty
Drink up
…because beer is cheaper than water
But most of all
Live it up
Take too many vacations,
And spend money you don’t have…
You’ll end up thanking yourself later.
