This Moment Is Ours

What if the future is

closer than you think?

What if it's here the

next time you blink?

A thousand things linger

in both our minds,

And we begin to wonder

if we can still run and hide.

I cannot start to imagine what

will happen in the next hour,

But we both know that

this moment is ours.

We cannot tell what

our futures will hold,

For there is no way

to look down the road.

I don't know what will happen

when you go your own way,

But we still have this moment,

we still have today.

What is going to happen when

the music refuses to play?

If I stare back at you

will you turn away?

When I open my eyes

will you still be here?

Or will I once again

have to shed lonely tears?

Hold on to this moment

for that is all that exists,

Look towards the sky

and let's both take a risk.

Open your eyes and

wish upon the stars,

For they are there to tell us
