one single moment
it almost seemed like an eternity
the sky had began to glow
on my walk towards another day
i tried to capture the joy in my heart
between my fingers
the colors were beautiful
almost hypnotizing
i could see the air as i exhaled
my hands shook with anticipation
for every passing moment
the night lights remained on until the sun revealed itself
every single step
every heavy sigh
every minute of everyday passed before my eyes
i remember the sky
i remember breathing in the night air
the shadows towered above us all
the one single moment
when i tried so hard to be happy
had slipped by me once again
i remember her
her hair blew in the winter breeze
as my heart sailed off into oblivion
at the sight of those eyes
those eyes
her eyes held the an ocean of beauty
we would gaze upon each other in what seemed like forever
and fall in and out of love in a never ending instant
but you were always gone
whenever i thought i needed you
even if it seemed like i'd been with you forever

i remembered the sky
the night lights casted shadows above us all
in a single moment
when i tried so hard to be happy
you were gone

I like it. The lack of punctuation makes it difficult to read. I liked the description, but wasn't fond of the line, "the sky had began to glow."

Good job, and keep writing.

i corrected a lot of the lines soon after i posted it, i just haven't had a chance to correct it. The lines are longer and i separated them when the subject sort of changes.
I'll see what else i can do, also.
