something new

something new has to happen soon,
and it will,
not only because time is running out,
but because we want to.

we no longer have to say
"time will tell",
because we can already tell
that our time is precious
we can already tell
that we don't need to know more
and we can already tell
that this is worth keeping

because we don't have to fight
to get more out of each other
or to keep what we have intact,
we just have to fight
to get more of what we already have,
so that we can use what we have
to get more out of life.
