If tonight is all you have
What would you want
To know
To give
To try
Every moment can be slow
Or could fly
So take the moment
To prepare the answer
For in the life we are living
Nothing is ever a given
If tonight is all you have
What would you want
To know
To give
To try
Every moment can be slow
Or could fly
So take the moment
To prepare the answer
For in the life we are living
Nothing is ever a given
I was a little wild
In my youth
The memories have
I am glad
I made it through
To see the days
Of a finer wisdom
Upon my life
So I am grateful
To be here
And everyday too
The lights of the city
Brimmed with
Possibility
To try the new faces
Of creation
To be unique and different
Everyday
That goes by
This is the light of the city
In my eye
It was the count
To the countdown
And the commands
Were losing the men
So the last hope of an effort
Was made
In dire straits
And the vision was
Pure
The light was even
And in this particular moment
Not one thing
Went wrong
The city life
Of motion
Moves without even knowing
What will come next
And the random strain
That is made from a misstep
Will make you remember
The way the world moves
With us all riding
Along
The HQ
A place to define
The limitations
Of what can be
And what could be
Done
And undone
With exhaustion
To the wind
Of narratives
Grave
In the HQ the words
Land
The laugh came
But held
In the tongue
Bit from the words
Of comedy
Flung on the moment
The delirium
At question was no longer
At bay
And the laughter came
Running
Away
The flawless morning
Of subtle hues
Of pink and yellow
Bring on the day
Upon which
A foundation
Of light is laid
To start with the hopes
Of something
New
A storm
Of proportions
Unknown
So hold your hands
Tight
Don’t look outside
And take heed
To the warnings
Of the night
In time
Life will die
But in the passing
Of seconds
We lose
Our recollection
Of the beautful
Connections
Made along the way
I hope to remember these hopes
As I grow old
