Life

Poetry

Such a brief moment we have

Just a glimpse of light, a breath of air, a pounding of the heart

The wretchedness of pain, The warmth of love

A passionate kiss, The numbness of regret

The pursuit of self

The moments of truth

A world to set your heart on fire with passion and emotion

A billion tiny moments

Put together to make up a lifetime.

Or maybe not, maybe far less moments

No one can know how many times the heart will beat

And it may all be gone in the blink of an eye

Each breath may be the last

The words that are spoken may be heard no more

That warm embrace may mend a heart

Those forgiven lies may save a soul

Do not with hold for tomorrow what you can love and make right today.
