Moments In Time
Mary Helen Trujillo 1987 (Colorado)
We are all just moments in time
Vast and unrelenting as we flutter through the seconds
We breathe in and out yearningly trying to return to those moment that make us breathless and whole
Our fragile lives can be shaken and shattered like a porcelain doll
Yet, we endure and face the future with bated breath, waiting for those moments when we may be breathless again
Gorged on air we fight to find the times in between the nuances of the hours we spend
But we are all just moments in time, in the end
