Carpe Diem

"There's no way to the heart better than awkwardly."

i seize the day as morning ends.
day breaks and night melts away
into sun and sky and clouds and now.
if morning could be like this every morning
i would find you before dark
and we could dance in the marigolds
made light by the sun's reflection
and the sky's innocence that a thousand

oceans could never wash away.
if i could seize the day.
