Right Now
Sarah Jury Sep 2010
To me..
The past has been written, crossed out, smuged, misspelt, , bold, italic, underlined. The future lays bare, smooth, spacious, a blank white page of an open book.
Although it's funny how we can look backwards and try to understand what we have written, yet we must live forwards.
You normally ask a question and wait for the answer, but to me it seems, the past can be answered and the future is the question.

The present however, makes more sense to me. It's just simply 'being'. Which to me, sounds like the most simplest of things, especially since thats what we do day in and day out, some of us not even realising. In the present I can be certain of myself, how I feel, what I think, what I want, who I am.

Right now i'm in love, that scares me.
Right now the whole world is at my feet, that terrifies me.
Right now I know who my friends are, that makes me smile.
Right now I can do what ever I want, that excites me.
Yet that's all I can be certain of, right now.

The Little Things In Life
Sarah Jury Sep 2010
It's the little things in life that can change the way you feel,
like a kiss on the cheek, a flower in your hair or going for a meal
They say money makes the world go round, and money can buy you some amazing things
but it only takes a smile to wake me up in the winter mornings
Like a ladybird cautious to land,
eventually it will flutter down and reach for your hand
Let it guide you through the woods,
stone and prickle and wolves in hoods.
Till at last you taste the sun,
you need not worry about what's to come.
Its the simple things in life that matter the most,
sugar in your tea, jam and butter on your toast
Don't be afraid to take a chance,
Show yourself to me, laugh and dance
Be free to dream, love and kiss
There isn't a single part of you that I would want to miss.
