Clarity

Third poem, again sort of looks at the idea of noise and surroundings, but this time it's slightly different.

Sometimes time passes

so quickly that,

I just get so caught up

in the moment.

And when it gets like that,

when everything is blurry 

and makes my head hurt,

there are these points

of startling clarity,

when I see her

and everything makes sense.

It's like every time I hear

my favorite song, 

and I just feel this

overwhelming calm.

Do you understand that?

When you meet this

perfect person,

and when you look at them,

they're so much brighter

than everyone else? 

Because I do, 

I absolutely do.

I definitely understand...sometimes all it takes is one positive memory to halt the insanity that time threatens to burden us with...I enjoyed this one very much, it put my mind at ease and brought many of my own positive memories to the surface...nicely done willow :)
