Shall We Dance?


There are moments, countless moments that are handed to us--moments that we want and hope for.

Moments that we, unfortunately, never really take advantage of.

We tell ourselves to do something, anything, but

nothing happens.


It's this kind of transient hesitation that takes control, that makes us miss out on these opportunities.

Where does it come from? Why does it happen?

Why does it happen, when we know exactly what we want to do and how to to do it?



Why do we just stand around and let the chance waltz away right before our eyes?


Human beings are one of the only (if not the only) organisms on this Earth that knows that one day, we will cease to live--that our time is limited.

But if that's the case, why do we keep living our lives wasting so many of these moments that will never come along again?


Please.


Please tell me.

Like A Wall of Stars, We Are Ripe to Fall



You've introduced me to a moment--a brief interval of unconditional acceptance, growth and content.

It's left me with something. Something great.


It was an exchange of puzzle pieces, but the part that we gained from each other was much, much larger than the part that we had to give up.



And it fit perfectly.

Ladies and Gentlemen, We are Floating in Space




Every thing we do--whether it be the way we laugh and smile to try and make others feel better, even though we aren't ourselves; the way we strive and hope for the best in life, despite being terrified at the possibility that things will never be how we want them to;

or the way I kiss the top of your eyelid, as you start to fall asleep.

Every single thing we do makes its mark in time and space. And once it is done, there is absolutely nothing that can take it away. Therefore, in a continual sense, after our time is gone and used up, we'll be there--our mark will last forever.

We'll be there: laughing, hoping, kissing, breaking. Feeling everything that countless amounts of people have felt before in their short, seemingly minuscule lives.


But we'll still be there.


I'll be there with you in our moment in time and space,





kissing the top of your eyelid, as you start to fall asleep.
