Hold fast to love
For if it fades
Life is like a dark tunnel
That's filled with grey.
Hold fast to love
Until it wakes
Life is like a risk you take
For a hopeful day.
They fall . . . gold ,

         bronze . . . copper . . . and brass

Jeweled like glass

         'n emerald . . . ambered . . . and rubied

The days of my life

         fall autumned . . .

               sudden . . . and fast
Lights flash overhead,
Shadows lace the journey on:
Heavenly beings.
Life has accelerated;
Death rushes up to my face.

I'm taking it one day at a time
I wish the world could just rewind
and take me back to where I went wrong
in everyday life I feel like I'm stuck on a climb
if only we could just rewind
so I could take it one day at a time
because I get caught in the moment
as seconds turn to minutes
and minutes turn into hours
but then hours turn into days and
days turn into months
and months turn into years
and all of a sudden I'm thinking,
where the hell did I go wrong
I can't even begin to tell
whether or not its my fault
or weather its all just a huge coincidence
that I
got chosen to bear these pains
or was it a gift
a gift that will lead me
lead me to a better place where better people are?
Like a country road maybe it will take me to
where I belong
where people can except that were different
where everyone understands the struggles
but I'm stuck living in either future or the past
either way I will never find where my true home is
because if I cant live in the present
what if the path suddenly turns away from its usual straight line
what if it takes me down an easier path
or an unfamiliar path
where ever Its taking me I need to fallow
and start living each and every second,
not minute nor hours
not days nor months
not years.
I need to live life on the path that it presents to me
not the path I want
but the one I need to feel again
each day?
no not day
each hour?
no not hour
each minute?
No not even each minute
but by each and every second.
I must pull myself from the past
pull myself from the future and live in the present
for the present is the best present you can have.
So from now on I will live each and every day
one
day
at
a
time

A week ago I didn't know your name
A week ago my lips had never known the touch of yours
A week ago I didn't know that bliss this vast was a possibility
A week ago I doubted my abilities to fall in love
Then you came
You came and changed my whole world in the time lapse of a few days
These few days have been some of the best of my life and I know I'll have you for the rest of my life
You see, they say that you know almost immediately when it's the one and I now really believe that is true because dear God have I fallen for you
I haven't just fallen, I've dove off this cliff knowing you'll be the parachute to save me

We were perfect
we ran fast
our hands fused in love
I reflecting you
you enhancing me
until we got drunk
on bitter wine
and tasted the sour day
Samantha Nov 2014
I want to change the past
I want to meet the cast
I want to save the best for last
but I think I was getting so fast*

Life goes by without you even noticing it
One day you have it all
The next one you lose it all.
It's less than a minute
But more than a second
And there's no stop button.
There's no life watch
No way to say when it ends
Nor when it began.
Sometimes it feels as good as 4 o'clock
On a sunny Saturday afternoon
Sometimes it feels as bad as 2 o'clock
On a dark Friday night.
Everyone is rushing and running
Everyone wants to stop the clock
But they often forget
That there is no clock to stop.
