In This Brief Moment In Time

In This Brief Moment In Time Intriguing thoughts race within my hurried mind A moment of retrospect, perhaps lost in a memory Grappling with many strange emotions of all kinds These memoirs I hold dear, echoes of my own story In this brief moment in time Light of day beams into my sleepy closed eyes In the realm between reality or lost in a dreamscape Body quivers from the cold, dreaming slowly dies Awareness slowly creeps into my mind as I awake In this brief moment in time Memories of past events forever lost in time As I struggle with the voices within my mind As If the shadows of my soul would define The answers to such queries I should find In this brief moment in time The deafening quiet that envelops this room and my soul Effigies of who I have become, in this universal womb Of all of life’s lessons that may have taken their toll Encased in all thoughts in my subconscious entombed In this brief moment in time Sitting alone with my thoughts, no aspersions to be cast Confidence eludes me, too many questions that I ask My mind races with the worrying mistakes of the past To carry this burden I do is such a worrisome task In this brief moment in time
