For A Moment...

...then they slipped away

By Ken DonnerPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read

Thought I found the perfect words to say,

For a moment,

Then they slipped away,

But in that moment everything was good.

You understood my innermost,

Saw the ghost of things that used to be,

I'd found a way to help you see,

Beyond the pain,

Blame,

Wrong or right,

To put things in a different light,

You had your own epiphany,

Knew the ties left binding you and me,

Are ties built deep and meant to last,

Irregardless of the past,

Saw your warm, accepting, glowing heart,

I sensed you ready to restart,

I'd found the perfect words to say,

For a moment,

Then they slipped away.

Been writing since I was 9 years old or so.

Can't help myself.

It's how I'm wired.

A multitude of verse.

"I may never learn to fly, but keep the sky above me open, just in case."
