Fleeting Moments in Time
A poem about memories and the people we love.
Will it all be forgotten?
I remember staying up late
Watching the same VHS movies
Trying to beat time
Holding onto the moment
Yet, I would eventually fall asleep
Waking to another day
Those moments I remember together
As a collection of one memory
When young we see our family unit
The people who are around us regularly
These are the most important people in the world
The world should know them
When we get older more people come into our lives
We may expand the family unit
Placing the older one to the side
The new and old family units merge
The memories of the youth are made
We realize the world is large
Many people roam about making their memories without us
Without those we consider famous to ourselves
Age brings wisdom and our smallness humility
