If I knew,
I would live for a year…
And only a year
Would I spend so much time,
In front of the computer
Every day?
Would I pay mortgage,
Or save money?
For the house I’d never own
for the plans, I’d never catch?
Would I be afraid
Of jumping from a cliff?
Or from a plane?
With a parachute!
Or with nothing at all?
Or I would,
Pack my backpack
And walk around the world,
take my camera
And freeze every second,
Of the remaining of my life?
Would I care that the girl I like,
Is six years older than me?
Or the water pipe is
Bad for my health?
Or I would tell,
Every beautiful girl in the street
How voluptuous they are,
Under the August's sun,
How many places I haven’t seen,
How many wines I haven’t tasted,
How many lips I haven’t kissed
If I knew I’d
live for a year,
and only for a year,
I would ask myself,
How locust would taste like,
How sleeping in a desert,
Would feel like
I would be drunk,
High,
Every moment,
Every day
Now,
Who’s given me the guaranty
That I’ll have even a year...
That I’m living like
I’m going to live
For ever

I like it even if it's not a poem.
So what was your decision, to live like you have a year left, or back to the computer prehaps?
