Poem Title:
Poem
We all find ways to cherish a moment, the ones we wish would last forever. Some of us snap photos. A camera in our faces every chance we can. 'For the memories' some will say, as they lay out albums, photo string lights, and frames that line every inch of wall, and table until it's a museum in your house. Others will write as the words come to them. Notebooks, diaries, a pen and paper. Words fill the page, a record of the memories that once were forgotten; that others can't recall. People will record their voices that tell the stories like verbal diary entries. Their words take them back to a moment they forgot, and tears find their face as their heart aches in fondness. Videos will be taken for everything you do; birthdays, parties, outings, and clubs. You'll find the times you laughed so hard or tripped over your own feet. The moment you met someone who changed your entire life. Put it altogether, and you find a documentary capturing the moments you wanted to hold on to. A collection of drawings in their files and sketchbooks. Every person they've met, all the ones that have left. Moments that meant the world to them. Small, kind actions they never expected. Whatever made their chest feel warm. That person that posts every photo they take; every video, and view, and person they've met. Quotes and books and music given to them by others. The one that uploads something every day is actually creating their online memory book. We often wonder what is the best way to keep a moment we don't want to end. Times our hearts were fond and our smiles so wide as happiness consumed us, or little things that meant nothing to them and everything to us. How do we keep that moment forever? We capture it however the moment allows. In pictures, writing, recording, drawing, and posting. We capture the moment so that it will live on for as long as we want. However it's done, the moment is now forever alive in us and anyone we choose to share it with.
