The non-promised gift.

poetry speaks

Those moments...
When words can't describe,
when the world is put aside,
and feelings mix then collide.

I search for those moments...
where time stands still.

Must I climb the tallest mountain,
then jump to make my heart skip a beat.
Must I swim down to an oceans bottom,
then breathe in water to find what I seek.

Ask for what you must,
make of me what you will,
and take that which I need.
Just leave behind that moment,
when words can't describe,
when the world is put aside,
and feelings mix then collide.

Give me that moment,
where time stands still.

Am I not great enough for you to see,

not great enough for such a gift.

Am I not trying hard enough for it to be,
not trying hard enough for such a wish.

I will give up my pen,
erase that which I love,
and abandon those I call friend.
Will I then get that moment,
when words can't describe,
when the world is put aside,
and feelings mix then collide.

Attempt as I may,
sacrifice as I will,
plead as I do...
That moment is never promised.
That moment when time stands still.

I love the imagery in here. The smooth flowing rhythm of the words are nice :)
