It is very rare
To live in the moment.
At any given time
We find ourselves
Thinking about the past
Or planning for the future.
To live in the moment
Is the most beautiful
Feeling;
Because you remember
Every sound,
Smell and touch,
And have memorised
Every crease on your lover's palm.
And for days,
Months
And even years,
You will live in that moment
Until time drains the colour
Of that memory,
Like a used cloth,
And you have to find
Another moment to live in.

It is very rare
To live in the moment.
At any given time
We find ourselves
Thinking about the past
Or planning for the future.
To live in the moment
Is the most beautiful
Feeling;
Because you remember
Every sound,
Smell and touch,
And have memorised
Every crease on your lover's palm.
And for days,
Months
And even years,
You will live in that moment
Until time drains the colour
Of that memory,
Like a used cloth,
And you have to find
Another moment to live in.
