Moment

Moment

All it takes is a

Moment.

All it ever takes is a moment

For everything to

Slip- to shift.

A full blossom is only a

Firm, gust away from separation.

Dispersed, so

Simple so easy-

It is angering

Infuriating

It is almost too damn easy.

Someone should make

It more difficult

To change the course of my entire life.

Who has time to

Tip-toe through every

Moment of life?

And what is to say that

Being careful would

Ensure safety.

So to recap- nothing can

Stop one of those moments

Avoiding one could back

You into another.

It just makes me want to

Stretch my arms out as

Wings and

Run as fast as I can.

Not avoiding the moments

But going on the offensive-

Engaging the moment before

It sideswipes me.

In a quiet minute

I change my mind.

Good or bad

There is something

Undeniably romantic, sexy,

About the moment.

Out of thin air

The moment

My stomach drops and I

Lose my breath.

That first glance

Exchanged

Or smile shared.

The ultimate beauty

Of a bodily

Reaction to a moment

When the tangible force of

Life

Meets the very soul-

And births a moment.
