Moments

History, today’s memories
Highlights, of a former life
Deteriorate
Into an oblivion

Nothing sees forever
The heart’s joy severed
From loss
Which brings forth exhaustion

The burden
Of thriving in ignorance
Disbelieving
That all must come to conclusion

The moment is so strong
It builds,
it binds
Only to be released
