The Moment of Now
Tomorrow is not a given:
yesterdays can't be taken back.
Today is your reality:
and Hope is what keeps you on track.
Live within the moment of now,
delve into the essence of you.
And ask yourself if you're happy,
have your fantasy dreams come true?
Look deep within your hurting heart,
have its wounds festered over time?
Or have you experienced love
that can only be called sublime?
Take a break; step outside yourself
and see the you that others see.
You are constantly performing,
playing who you pretend to be.
We are but actors on life's stage:
roles written by the hand of fate.
And busy rehearsing our parts,
leaves no time to communicate.
