I found myself enveloped in laughter,
dancing in the warmth of time.
Living as though I had no tomorrow,
waiting for the clock to chime.
I found myself loving the seconds,
filled with the faces I saw.
My emotions vividly raw.
A sparkle of hope ever fleeting,
a girl on a rooftop dreaming.
A whisper of days long before,
hopeful for peace, nothing more.
I heard my voice in an echo,
deep inside my soul.
My heart sang out loudly,
fearlessly and bold.
A stampede of emotions,
in the hush of my breath.
I have lived before my death!
Aware of the tipping scale,
all the things meant to derail.
But here in this present surprise,
right before my very eyes.
The scale had found her balance,
released from the tide before.
I in awe and wonder,
simply could not beg for more.
From eyes fixed, overflowing,
with gratitude of now.
A heart that beats with pleasure,
before the final bow.
No longer still, but dancing.
from bitter time to sweet.
Savoring this moment,
refusing to retreat.
Tomorrow may be vengeful,
yesterday was that for sure.
But this small moment tells me,
that there is so much more.
So to the broken and the weary,
whenever you are weak.
Trust me it's not over,
if you muster the courage to seek.
You'll find the tides that push you,
are a fragment of the sea.
And though they may surround you,
they have to set you free.
So seek out love and laughter,
in darkness do not dwell.
and before the chime, not after,
narrate your story well.
