Quiet But For One Moment

QUIET BUT FOR ONE MOMENT 

 

 

Quiet but for one moment,

 

Which under or is that over whelms me still,

Our will to push on wading fades then 

Flares back undercurrent emotion

Keeps together where we together sleep,

 

Whispering our souls in unison,

 

Quiet but for one moment,

 

Speak Truth I feel from my soul so that

I may soon say that I join you in this heaving heart

 

Leading the way

To a better world

 

Through us, our unison

Wandering our drive to win

While this energy must not stop, 

As slipping syllables flop,

 

Angels born before we were, 

Still in bright light unabating continue to sing for you,

Why wait when through you I reach new skies, 

Why wait in disguise when I've been looking for you the whole time?

 

Because 'tis Fate's wand or is that

Long due destiny or is it

Random mistake's improbable pick?

 

That hides you from me?

Why nit-pick serendipity?

 

Quiet but for one moment,

Your soft lips kiss love into mine,

 

Why wait when thy own heart

Aches with equal longing dancing in

Divine grace which greets our every embrace?

 

Why hold your every breath when

Air is here for us to share?

 

Quiet but for one moment,

Our sacred oath how long we've known

Belongs right here,

 

Our strength to leap this gap through chiming bells' pulsing hold,

Ring a-ding-ding her honey touch enchants,

As flowing questions of love suspend like that unsung moment of weightlessness,

Like fresh mist falls away from our path met only in dreams,

 

This moment out loud unfolds in us, 

In alliance along this trust we've sent,

Receive, we sing, almost whispering, 

 

“Quiet but for one moment.”
