I smile watching you breathe
Feeling you sleep
Long has it been that I dreamed of this
You, me and the sound of your sleeping
The touch of your dreams
I know this moment is only born of torn memories and dashed dreams
I know that it is only a moment
But sometimes isn’t it all about the moment?
Isn’t life just moments strung together for our demise or pleasure?
Who’s to say what moments become hours, or days or what ones fade away
But the moments are what matter
Moments cause hearts to skip, like mine when I hear yours beat
Not from a far, but right in my ear
So distant yet easy to hear
The amazing thing about moments is the choices they represent and pose
Anyone could be here, yet here I am
Not ready, but not afraid
The darkness of my life fades as the ashes of fear are fading away
Some just fell, some were pushed
Some I chose to finally wipe away
I know fear is there but I’m no longer running
No longer numb
It feels good to be chosen, even if just for a moment
Because life is moments isn’t it?
Moments that define who we are
Choices that break us down and make us whole
Haunt us for life or cause us to die
But always remind us that we chose
Its easy to be bitter for choosing wrong
For moments gone astray
For time lost
For memories of moments that felt so right that you thought you really could kiss the sky
For memories of moments to painful that you cant help but cry
For the loss is greatest in the smallest of moments
And the reward is the smallest for the easiest of choices
But those moments are the reward
The beats of a heart lost at sea yet still in port
The touch of skin soft and forbidden
The feel of lips still reserved
The grip of holding on so tight that I can’t breathe but never wanting to breathe again if that means you letting go
The look in your eyes when you smile
The pain in your eyes when you remember
All of these moments are what makes time
All of this time is what makes moments
And all of these moments are what make me happy for this little time I have with you.
