Into one moment of consideration
Fly many years of thoughts;
Plans spinning in a whirlpool of
Love, laughter and colourful memories.

From the chaos, fragments of
Forgotten dreams appear.
Small snatches of the past threaten to
Unseat the future.

For still there remains
A desire to go and do, be and see;
A life driven by perpetual rhythm;
A pressing weight of exacting expectation.

Displaced by cool self-awareness,
Distant dreams evaporate,
Leaving in their wake the pursuit of glittering lights
Of a different nature.
