Now is the Moment

The past sets a stage,
As you engage in the story,
The future claiming most of the glory,
A glorious moment goes unseen,
While your lost between emotions,
Creating an even bigger commotion,
Going through the motions,
Rocking your boat in an ocean,
Not sure where its going,
Flowing towards a future,
Rowing fast away from the past,
Slowly passing by the moment,
It could be your last,
A vast existence is evident,
In the moment you stay present,
A sentient experience,
Creating the interference,
Necessary in this performance,
Creating another chance,
NOW is your time to advance,
Dance with uncertainty,
Inadvertently stumble upon yourself,
Grumbling about what went wrong,
Don't linger too long,
Sing a whole new song,
Moving along to a better view,
Feel love for all you do,
The future will wait for you,
NOW is the moment it comes true.
