I want to live an ordinary day
full with long moments
filling me whole
caressing my soul,
with hearts that beat,
ground and astound,
giving me flight—
not holding court
and selling me short.
Stop, count time
it's not unbound
what's sacred,
should be lived
so we transcend
not at the end,
but in the here
and now.
I pause and think
as I lay—
how should I live
this ordinary day?
