Moments

Tick tock... tick tock

the clock moves like you

vowing never to stop

I sit back and watch sometimes

as minutes turn to hours,

hoping to find moments with you

listen to the stories

swept in time,

sing you a song

as our lyrics rhyme

to get close to you,

even from a distance

and rest within you when near

you smile at my wins

up from the sky

wipe my sins 

and sing sweet lullabys

hold my fear, set free my djinns

shine like the sun

make the earth grin

warming it with your glow

or perhaps the all pervading moon

you are visible

but to only those who know

like a night shining in your wisps

silent and hidden

from the prying eyes

you slip into my being

when I begin to feel low

take every step ahead

before I know...
