Simple words

in love with the music from author's note

Can’t stop seeing

How the universe exhales

Soft beauty freeing

From incongruous parades

The lonely atoms,

That are hunting for delight,

Those graceful phantoms

That shimmer in the night…

And when it will inhale

Will all the roads come back to me?

And everything that seemed so frail

Will finally make me see

Where lays the strength.

And when I think that I know

What comes after another breath;

Time is showing me what was fast is now slow

Waiting for the next exhale…

Exquisite imagery and flow. Brilliant description of the living universe breathing as we wait with baited breath for the result. Sometimes waiting is the wisest action to take. Wait and see what the universe reveals... lovely!

i think when we are little, time seems to move so slowly, but when we get in mid-life it starts to race...and as our bodies and minds slow down...life and time go even faster than before.

indeed time is a strange thing, possibly not the same for two people...thanks for stopping by Jacob :)
