Making moments.

Making moments.

A Poem by Maggie Russell
"

We all make moments, whether we mean to or not. Sometimes we search and dig for what those moments truly mean.

"
In a moment
I am broken, I am flying, I am fallen
In a moment
I am haunted, I am restless, I am flaunted
Time is breaking, time is silent, time is shaking
In a circle
Looping round me
Another moment
Another entity

Nothing fades away inside after all
Incessantly, we all rise and fall
Making moments animate to life
Taking laments away into the night

In a moment
I am searching, I am hunting, I am crawling
In a moment
I am hungry, I am fearful, I am lonely
In a moment
I'm enlightened, I'm a spirit, yet I'm frightened
Shaking through me
Another moment
Another me

Nothing fades away inside after all
Incessantly, we all rise and fall
Making moments animate to life
Taking laments away into the night

I don't know what to believe anymore
Is it all the same as it was before?
Catching seconds, converting into light
Give me all I want for my insight

Nothing fades away inside after all
Incessantly, we all rise and fall
Making moments animate to life
Taking laments away into the night

Nothing fades away inside after all
Finally, we all rise and fall
Making moments animate to fade
Taking laments away into the day
