The Cure

Days never like today
       Days without words to say
Simply a brush of nature, a touch of cool wind
Heard was life
        Colors survive
Moments before and after… like a dream

Loneliness felt unlonely
        A troubled mind felt easy
Simply a lesser time for moments more
Even the rain is light
        Arriving earlier as well is night
Of moments only felt, never for time to recall

Almost like a cure
        When only a self knows to be pure
A part of a life lived… perhaps learned
A return never will be the same
        For the world forever will change
Moments choice less in times only… earned
