I wonder

if that moment exists

if everyone has it

that moment of

oh, I’m going to die

I wonder if everything slows

into a near pause,

where the scene freezes,

and precarious icicles are overhead

and they realize

that it is over, now

it could be for just a split second

or maybe even less than that

but do people have it?

or do some die still believing

that they are alive

and that they will keep living

and keep breathing

[midnightdrabbles]

poetry and live music

cut through everything

and anything

like nothing else

[midnightdrabbles]

it was one of those

half asleep dreams

the scene is blurry

and when you wake up

you’ll forget it except

you remember how it felt

I remember it was you holding me

and I know

I knew it was a dream

and in my semi slumber

I tried ever so hard

to just hold on

at least for just a moment longer

because I knew you weren’t really there

but I could practically feel it

I could feel it well enough

to keep my eyes closed for a while longer

to relish in that feeling

of being in your arms

in your embrace

because in my half asleep dreams

we were also half asleep

and you pulled me closer anyway

just to kiss me

when I eventually did wake up

I wondered if that

will be the closest thing

to peace with you

that I ever get

I don’t want it to be

but I can’t read your mind

and I find myself jealous

of all of your friends

because they can spend time with you

while they are awake
