Be in the moment

October 16, 2006 — Filed under: mypoems

Be in the moment… Be IN the moment Be there when the pin drops When the tree limbs sway and the clouds race overhead Be there for that feeling of water running over your body Soap bubbles clinging to your skin Be there, in that moment and don’t let your mind wonder No moment is ever boring when you pay attention In that moment when your lover says they love you Be in the moment Resist those memories of broken hearts and empty promises Why waist a perfect slice of time on a past that will never change Change the future and live now Fight against the wondering mind and wonder in the shoes you are in You can always love like you’ve never loved before Become the moment; the past will come under your command Instead of the past commanding you This page was white the moment before I decided to change it The life of this page will never be the same again I paint it with love and kindness Kisses and hugs I love this page like no other, be cause it is here, right now This moment will never happen again I free myself as I free this page Be in the moment, never forget, and rule your own mind
