For now and forever



A blinding sunrise, and the cool morning breeze,
The pounding on the road of the determined feet
the smell of sweat and the sound of ragged breathing
none of those ever seemed so sharp and soothing.
Smoky fog and dew drops on rose petals,
greener grass and the warm woolen mittens,
the winding road that makes a stranger your kin,
I know I have changed for now and forever
when the smallest of the sound is music in making,
when life becomes a sumptuous feast,
with all the truffles, tarts and trimmings
laid out in all its grandeur for my leisure..
when the old sweatshirt is all I need for comfort,
and when your smile changes my entire day
so when you asked, did I matter?
All I could think was, I noticed life a bit more
because you were the reason I lived life a bit more.
My life was a plethora of sharp contrasts and big colors
and I was changed, for now and forever.
