This Moment

Life offers A few choice moments… Pregnant with promise Open to opportunity Dense with destiny Moments in time When everything You have Everything you are Hangs in the delicate balance Replete with risks… Should you speak… Or keep silent? Should you reach out… Or withdraw? Should you embrace… Or walk away? Should you write… Or wait for a message? The seconds pass… You hold your breath Knowing This moment May change your life Forever Almost gone It’s almost gone The chance To make happiness yours To reveal all that you hide… The lasting love The possessive passion The moment is ripe To touch To feel To fly To melt Into the essence Of eternity This moment Here Now….. Don’t let it pass by This moment Could change every other moment Of the rest of your life. Eileen Manassian Ghali
