When is \" Now\" ?

When is now ?


Is now the time we spent with friends drinking by an open fire?
Was that memory a gift from Father time ?
Or is old Father time a liar?

Can we hold those moments closer than before?
Will the chance to say the things we need to say just pass?
Captured in a moment
How long will it last?

Will our moments burst just like a bubble in the air?
Will our love be pure and true and will it stay protected ?
Does a moment equal now?
Or is “ Now” retrospective?

Will that moment stay with us forever?
Keep us safe and focused as we age?
Memories of the time we spent together.
Or will you simply turn another page?

Can we hold that moment in our hearts or in a cup?
When was it you totalled up our moments?
Decided that our time was up ?

It’s something that I really need to know.
The moment you decided we were through.
The day you chose to let our moment go.
