Moments
You will find them lurking in a corner, hiding, waiting to
catch you by surprise.
You’ll find them in a smile or a glance,
in a familiar scent in the air or a hand that helps you
cross the road,
in a friend’s laugh, a lover’s touch,
in an unintentional braze, in a passionate kiss.
Moments
When you find them, these little moments, tucked away only
to pop up in different phases of your life,
You stay. You wonder where it had been all along but you
give up, because you are living in the moment,
You want forevers, you want promises, you want a life made
out of all these moments carefully strung together.
You close your eyes and in an instant, live all of your
dreams.
But that’s the thing about them.
They are moments.
Open your eyes and they are gone.
