For a Moment, I Was Here

Mhhhhmm... Ahhhhh... For a moment... I stopped running. And the world didn't disappear. I felt the air against my skin. Heard somebody laughing somewhere down the street. The sun was falling through the window... and for no reason at all... I smiled. Mhmmmm... Nothing happened. Nothing changed. And somehow... everything did. For a moment... I was here. Not yesterday. Not tomorrow. Not somewhere inside my mind. I was here... breathing... feeling... alive. Ahhhhh... Mhhhhmm... For a moment... I was here. We spend so much time somewhere else. Inside old conversations. Inside things we should have said. Inside tomorrows that haven't even happened yet. And all the while... life keeps touching our shoulder... whispering: Look at me. Mhmmmm... Look at me... Maybe life doesn't always arrive with thunder. Maybe it doesn't knock. Maybe it's the coffee getting cold beside you. Rain against the glass. A familiar voice calling your name. Someone reaching for your hand... without saying why. Ahhhhh... For a moment... I was here. I heard the silence between the sounds. I felt my heartbeat underneath the noise. And suddenly... I didn't need to understand anything. I didn't need an answer. I didn't need to know... what comes next. Mhmmmm... I was here. Tell me... how many moments have we walked through without ever being inside them? How many sunsets did we miss... while waiting for something better? How many people did we love... without stopping long enough to let them know? Mhhhhmm... Ahhhhh... Maybe that's why some memories hurt. Not because they were bad... but because we didn't know they were beautiful... while they were happening. Ahhhhh... Mhhhhmm... For a moment... I was here. And you were here. Nothing perfect. Nothing promised. Just two hearts inside the same minute... before the minute became a memory. Mhmmmm... Stay... just for a moment. Don't say anything. Don't ask what tomorrow brings. Just... stay. Ahhhhh... Because right now... before this becomes something we remember... look at me. I'm here. You're here. And maybe... that's enough. Mhhhhmm... Ahhhhh... For a moment... we were here. And this time... we noticed.
