Moments

By Lab Rat

Been doing this for awhile
One foot in front of the 
Other
Watching the moments 
Spill down my sight
Wrapped

Each individual

A moment in time
Gently
Silently they slip
Like drops of water
Down windowpane
Some leave trails
Tracks
Streaks in the glass
Shooting down like comets
Or grooved like bullets

I have a moment in time
For everything
A memory, a heartbeat
In the fabric of my life

One for everything
I recall them all
Each moment

Each triumph
Every disaster
Cupping them in my hands
Calloused, rough

I toss the moments
Letting them spill down 
All over again

Just to watch them dance
Slide
Down the windowpane of my mind


And I recall each
Feel each
Relive each

Here in the dark
Alone


Just me and my moments

    Living life from moment to moment . I do that too in the dark sometimes . Just in silence and watch the the moments fly by .
