When love embraces you,
so that every inch of skin
is awake and secure,
do you question it’s reality?
I do not mind where it’s from,
only that it exists.
Only that, in that moment,
I am as alive and aware
as I can ever be.
Talk to me and feel it,
Smile to let it in,
And laugh so that it rests deep within your soul.
I am living in the moment-
knowing that its running by,
But flattered that it took the time
To stop and give me a hug
before it disappeared
into the ether.
