Christine Phillips Poet Dramatic Monologue

Moments of happiness

I’ve never seen you smile except for when you are telling a lie
I have never seen you smile except for when you are gazing at the sky
Looking out in the deep as if you are searching for your only lost sheep
And the heaven spread its arms around you and reveal it glory inside you.

I have never seen you smile, except for when you are saying goodbye;
It’s as if you are glad to go before the winter breaks and it snows all over the place.
And the passion in the street sucks up the heat.

You pretend to be happy when you are in a hurry, 
but each time your heart betrays you, the heaven saves you
and you try to escape from that place but all you feel is the
weight vibrating from the human race and the morning running
in front of you like mad men running a marathon without socks and shoe
and you have to decide where to go when there is no one left to do the show
and you search for that one soul to connect with heart.

You have been working all summer without a minute break or the time to do the shake
You have to live your life before the sparks disappear out of the light; a summer in the 
sun will be fun, for life on earth had harmony before you came along. 
You traveled thousands of miles to see the sun and the moon kiss and then you wait for that moment to see the historical eclipse, that moment you could not miss.

A moment’s happiness that’s all that you have and when you smile the universe is mad
The street comes alive   and it makes the universes go wild. People flock the street
And the musicians play the rhythm and the beat, and everybody starts dancing in the street
The moment is real.

The moment is precious when you come on air, you have so much to share but in one split second you are not there, and if you miss that moment, it’s like losing the ticket that will take you to heaven and when your spirit speaks your soul weeps and that moment is all that you have and you will never feel sad. 

Seize the moment when it comes and say what you mean for the universe is real it is not a dream. You will never capture that moment again and you never find that special friend, you have treated it so badly and the universe is not happy; but there is still a chance to save your soul and turn that moment into gold or you will have to wait for a decade for that moment to reappear.

I watched the day gallop away and everyone keep passing this way, they meet and greet 
And the cries turned into smiles and the moment quickly fades away.
