Like moments

Like moments in the sun,

we wash ourselves clean with crystaline rain drops,

crying to eagles soaring high,

we cater to the foxes of the jungle,

Like moments in the sea,

we drown ourselves in each other’s problems,

gasping for air,

we try to catch each breath in the wilds of the ocean,

Like moments in a city,

we crowd each other to make ourselves feel bittersweet,

talking under the starlit sky,

we traversed the city streets talking in whispers about days past,

Like moments under the moonlit sky,

we ran our hands through sand,

twirling time between our fingertips,

love comes and goes,

but like the twinkinling of time,

we surrender under like moments,

holding diamonds on our necks,

cause darling I’ll be waiting to catch the firefly’s in your eyes,

waiting on like moments to cross our paths.
