this is it
there is but one moment
and it is now
the past is close behind
forever waiting
inhaling everything once new
longing for manifestation through recollection
the future hangs patiently before us
waiting for arrival
for breath
for life to exhale
a fluctuating discharge of energy
interpreted through diverse perspectives
into various emotions
but all that we know
and all that we have
is now
breathe it in

#category – takes you to a random poem in the same category
“no one can step in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and they are not the same person” – possibly Heraclitus
just as no one can step in the same river twice, no one can have the same experience of “as common as carbon” twice
