In the Moment

In the moment your life-cycle changes
Embrace a new future
Instead settled for the stale past
The answers you come up with
Are not the ones you are willing
To accept
Circumstances leave no room
For guess work
In the moment time can’t be taken back
For an instant clarity is a diamond
Sparkling in the sun
Examine it closer and see it’s
Filled with inclusions
Blemishes that aren’t seen with the
Naked eye become visible in the dark
In the moment what looked good in the mirror
Evil fore shadows behind soulless eyes
Lips speak deceit buried deeply in the heart
Lure you in and trap your spirit
Still it was in the moment
That has brought you to this place
