Long Road

everything has a cost

a debt that must be paid

sometimes a bridge is crossed

and the path back erased

here and now is all we have

yesterday never again to see

the beauty of the moment

too quickly becomes

the memory of you and me

Almost music... it seems one of those pieces that come already done in our mind, and we write it in the span of a breath.
It seems easy to write like this, but true inspiration is not enough, in this case I see it all; inspiration, wisdom, and true felt emotion.
