HE PAUSES
He pauses two times every day around the first and the last light…
Once after his eyes open in the morning…and once before they close at night.
At night…a peaceful moment…where in his bed he lay…
to relive some of the memories he collected throughout the day.
And in the morning when he wakes up…
as his eyes becomes accustomed to the light
he pauses a moment to wonder
what memories he will take to bed that night
