Hold on to this moment
Where you are right now The sounds Your breaths The faces of the people you love. They are all changing, Always changing, And you can never go back. Are you scared of the inevitable passing of time? Cause I sure am - Atlas

Guilt is sandpaper on the soul
Sometimes smoothing out the jagged edges And sometimes wearing it away Until all that remains Is dust. how far would you go to make things right - Atlas This fear is
More familiar now Less strange, less daunting It has grown no less difficult But I am learning how to breathe Around it. (One day, perhaps I will even find a way To befriend it.) hmmm - Atlas Let the stars
Hold you, little one They have loved you for so long Their light has travelled for thousands of years To meet the loose strands of hair that frame your face Your eyes Your mouth. They have been waiting To meet you, little one Because anyone who can take the remnants of a star And make it whole Is worth meeting. Can you hear them? They are singing. This makes no sense but I kind of like it anyway - Atlas Dance with me
Until the morning To music we don't recognize Dance, like the world is ending Every time we close our eyes my first prom!! it was really fun - Atlas Remember this moment
This feeling It will surely fade with time The landmarks shaping your life will crumble one by one Until there's nothing left from here So remember. ho hum - Atlas The clock ticks onward
The magic fades The day ends And I remain A little bigger, a little braver Unable to go back And unable to forget. the passage of time is inevitable yet scary (and exciting sometimes too, though I forget that more often) - Atlas I approach the dawn tenderly
Allowing it to unfold at its own pace With muted expectations And a gratitude with roots as deep as mountains. Thank you - Atlas When the world collapses on your chest
And it feels like nothing will be right again, Look around And remember: This too shall pass. When you listen to the soft breathing of someone you love Fast asleep Take a deep breath And remember: This too shall pass. hmm - Atlas I don't like to start fights
But to be honest it feels like we've been having one for a while now And just haven't said anything Maybe that's just me (If it isn't I certainly had some part in causing it) But I think it's time we talked soon. I knew it would be hard, and it is, and I'll get through it - Atlas |
