Notes About The Poem

One Moment

One Moment

I only held you for a moment
but one moment spent together.
Has changed the man I used to be
and how I see forever.

No more lonely tears to cry
and no more trying to cope.
One moment spent together
is my reason now to hope.

To hope today might see me through
and should it last forever.
There will come a place in time
one more moment spent together.

This is short, sweet and simply beautiful expression of positivity. Getting there, one day at a time. Good to know that, Ed.
