A Moment To Remember

A moment to Remember This night is too beautiful to behold, moon and silence. My heart aches. Know I will wake up at dawn and regret that I can’t take it with me. It will all be erased one day and I shall not know that I ever lived. I have nothing, cannot own anything but my own ageing body, all I can do is to enjoy the rare moments of fulfillments. I hear a plane high up see its light, full of passengers going home and back to work. Why would anyone want to leave this place? Across the road, in a darkened house, a man lies dying racked by pain he can’t even shave himself. He sees not the full moon. My life consists of moments, not like takes at a film studio that can be done over and over again till it’s right. Some moments are too sad to behold. Do not think of this now, I will drink another cold beer, smoke a cigarette, look at the stars and dream.
