Caught Within the Here and Now

Someday, somehow

Caught within the here and now

Turbulent thoughts have bewildered me

But I have come to honour thee

Flex not unless ye be misspoken

For I am more than a singular notion

False grains give way to lies

I have felt the passage of my eyes

In the vastness of my years

Collapse among the fallen tears

To have lived and loved unlike any other

Be still my heart, my gentle lover

So in as much as it is to say

Sway not within the verse of passionate rhyme

Nor beg before the nickel of time

For there are many different views

Beneath the sky amongst the hue

Pursuer hearts and hearts I knew

There are better days, beneath the sky so blue
