Moments

I cried recently. I don't do that much. I was laying in bed during a stressful week and I couldn't sleep (not an uncommon problem for me). My mind was racing with random thoughts that had no business being in my head at that time of night. All the sudden I thought of a moment I had with the last guy I dated. It was a sweet moment, one you would love to freeze and stay in forever. And so I cried, not because I missed him, NOT because I missed the limbo dance that was "us", but I cried for that moment. I cried because I missed it and I appreciated having experienced it.

"And I love this moment we're in, though we may never see this moment again..."
