A MOMENT IN TIME
 
 

Because we have a moment in time,
with me writing,
with you interpreting,
with me feeling,
and you wondering,

yet, this moment is ours.
do you know what I feel,
when I write to you,
do I know what you feel,
while you are reading this.
many things get lost in translation,

between friends, between people,
the same feelings that are said,
aren't the same that are heard.

Words imply feelings,
but we all have a different,
view in our mind,
of the picture at hand.

This is our moment,
me here with thoughts,
you there with dreams,
in a couple hours,
we change places...

yet the true time,
is yet all one,
this here, this now,
won't be repeated...

thoughts across time,
feelings through space,
if I reach out my hand,
can you sense its presence...

to project these feelings,
through this silly keyboard,
that you will see on your screen,
I know that you will feel them in person...

to describe in words,
so you can feel,
so you can visualize,
so you can know....

to know there is a you,
reminds me that I am,
to think of what you say,
makes me smile...deep inside..

sleep my baby,
rest from the day,
awaken with sunshine,
all the troubles have been taken far away.....
