Sometimes the world is not what we thought...
It's everything and nothing...
From the glory days...
To ones better off not remembered with such intensity
How easily do we seem to forget...
That we do need little reminders
It only takes a second to say...
I love you...
I apologize...
Can we talk?
Are you alright?
It costs nothing to offer such a simple kindness
Stop letting pride or ego
Hold you hostage from happiness in life
We have all too often drown within silence
And the words we weren't saying
It's the things that are left unsaid that take up the most space within our minds and hearts
Is what you are holding onto worth the space?
We cannot fight the battles for others
But what we can do is hold their hand
Offering a light in the darkness
Holding a safe space...
As they weather the storm
We are these moments
Here and now...
Survived...
Learned and living
Experiences gained
Embraced by the senses
We are a fleck of stardust in a world of imagination
Existence and reality
All in a moment
And then its gone
So don't let yesterday...
Take up too much of your today.
