Contemplating

Contemplating the world around
is only the thing I do.
Sounds that bring me joy
within the sights I see.
I listen to them as they sing.
Hearing the lengths of their play.
Always an end to what they do.
Moments are all I get.
Never too much.
Bringing me back to
just that part of what
I'm allowed.

It sounds like you are in the Now. A very nice place to be.

all I'm hearing now is the cold wind blowing in.

There comes a time in your life when you walk away from all of the drama and the people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right and pray for those who don’t. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living.
