A Single Moment

A Single Moment captured in my mind like the firefly’s light burns for a brief second on the summer’s night sky. I hold tight to that look in your eye. I nurse the glimmer of hope like a whisky straight up hold the ice. I remember clearly the smirk and the sound of your amused grunt. I’m no one to you. Not yet. Maybe not ever, the fates are still being woven and cannot be seen by mere humans like you or I.

I’m inspired to work harder now to get my house in order to live my life to use this time to prepare myself for what is coming. I feel something in the air now approaching me like you can smell the charcoal in the spring air when all the BBQ’s are lighting up welcoming the warmer weather. There isn’t anything here for me yet. Maybe not tomorrow either, the future isn’t now, but what I can’t see will be here soon.

Graves dot the earth like pimples cover the face of a teenage girl. Everywhere you go there are those that once thought they had plenty of time to do everything that needed to be done. I know my time will run down sooner rather than later. I feel this heart in my chest burn from the struggle to cover my every breath. I have no illusions of forever dancing in my head. I need to stop making plans and take actions instead.

Over and over I have stumbled and fallen; you were there waiting patiently to pick me up again. My two fathers have never failed me no matter how many times I have failed them. I will pull them both closer to me. I never want to push either of them away ever again. I want to watch the world my heavenly Father built around me and reach into it and help Him make it better. I want to lift my Fathers’ up. My spirit is burning with their love.

I hold onto the past no longer. I tie it to my fears and doubts and release them into the sky. A single moment can tilt your entire view point upside down and turn your whole being inside out. You did that for me and one day maybe I will return the favor. I wish you happiness. I hope our paths cross again someday. Until then burn brightly and never fade away….
