The Moment

Every second holds it
Embedded in its grasp
Inevitably memories are born

Ever thought about it?
When you pose for the camera…
A moment frozen in time
Holds the heart, the appearance
Whether its disguise created 
Or styles imitated

We’re all innocent of this world
But guilty of ourselves

Ever dreamt of the perfect family
Well keep dreaming…
Ever wished for the perfect one…
Well keep believing
Some say nothings perfect
But when you’re lost in it
When time seems to quit
When the world seems peaceful
And clichés seem to click
When you’ve never felt happier
Know that one thing is perfect

It’s the moment.
