This Beautiful Fleeting Moment

Dear moment, this moment, this small little moment,
Do you know how important you are?
Do you know how you’re a part of me, moment,
How you’re the biggest moment by far?

You’re my big little moment, in this moment of time,
You’re the best little moment to find,
And I wish we could chat but I see that you’ve gone,
Disappeared to the back of my mind.

There are moments where we would like for time to stop as we enjoyed the smallest piece of that time and then reality sets in then there is another life
