thoughts on a lonely night

Thoughts on a Lonely Night ~ by **ME**

Lying for hours on my back, on my bed
Watching the moon-cast shadows over my head

Wondering and
Dreaming and
Hoping and
Praying about

What has been
What is now
What may be

The past fades as a distant dream
Time moves too quickly
We are in the future, even now
And yet, tomorrow never comes

Caught in a web, we cannot escape;
Time holds us captive.
For those few extra moments, we’re forced to scrape;
They slip through a sieve.

Trying to evade time
Trying to live each day to the fullest
Often we miss the little things

Tiny things

Things that at first glance
Appear to have no import
Upon further review
The small things
Are what make

Life… worth living…

These are the thoughts that run through my head
Lying alone, in the dark, on my bed
