This life is worth living - 

The laughter of friends that trickles out of your window onto passerby strangers
Viewing a film after you've read the book to note where the changes were 

That feeling in the pit of your stomach before the band plays their first note
Sharing tales of humor at the end of a night in clouds of smoke

Nostalgia of an old journal, a reminisce of your former selves
Locking eyes across a room with the unknown as the fates cast their spells 

The reprieve of warmth after the cold has bitten you
When it's finally time for the song you threw into the queue 

The view at the top of a peak while the sun casts her glow
A euphoric savasana after a well determined flow

Encasing your hands around the coffee mug's heat
Embracing your long distance friend after ages apart, making you complete

Observing the evolution time has spun on your face
Forgiving your trespassers, freeing yourself by giving them grace

A split bottle of wine, drunk off of each other's stories
The laugh of a father as he spins his tales for you of all his past glories

Nights in sacred bond, souls tied forevermore behind closed doors
When your roommate lends you a skirt, saying what's mine is yours

Hearing the comfort of your sibling's voice in the other room
Cascading through a garden of wildflowers, nowhere to be, all in bloom

When fate carries you to someone you missed before ever even meeting
Windows down in a car with your best friend as you feel your worries fleeting

Forging trust in the dark of night, unveiling consecrated secrets 
The first sign of sunlight when your loved ones carry you out of the deep ruts

The notion that with each year of life, you continue to become more you
Imagination running wild of all the places you'll love, all the love you'll pursue

This life is worth living -
