here and now








There is life there but here as well

and yet we pass through today

with things unnoticed, regretting

and longing for things

past the time when they once mattered.

Here is what you only have, not there.

No chance now for that friendship.

They are there,

doing their own thing,

getting on with life.

There the sun might be shining

But you can see the stars here now.

And you can walk

under the flickering light

the sound of thunder

and the million breaking raindrops.

Things can go on without you

only realize it now it won’t wait for you

if you don’t jump on it now.
