Before the batteries need to be recharged,
Before I write another story or poem.
Before I can go forward, my friend,
Before you start to think this is the end,
A moment, if you dont mind.
A moment to think of all of the yesterdays,
A memory, a song or even a photograph.
A time when dreams felt possible,
A time to relax.
A time to feel alive.
Shutting down from a world full of hate.
Shutting down to explore and appreciate.
Shutting down to take a trip here or there.
Shutting down to rest without fear.
Shutting down to think of a possible new career.
1,2,3,4,,5.....
Blessed to be alive.
Blessed to say I survived.
Blessed to take moments like this.
Blessed to share with family and friends.
Blessed to be back where I want to be.
Blessed to do this anytime, anywhere or when,
Blessed
