Moments Like These

There are moments where the world stands still,
When the clock ticks slowly by.
These moments are joyful, happy, sad or fearful,
But it’s moments like these that make life worth living.
Moments like these that can intoxicate the soul.

These moments are special, memorable moments.
The birth of a baby,
The death of a loved one,
When your child takes their first steps,
Toward the moments that we hold so dearly.

Are these moments what keep us going?
Are these hiding the meaning of life?

These moments are special, memorable moments.
Your last dying feelings,
The first time you feel love for another,
That first kiss that we all look forward to,
That kiss that becomes the flame of love that life cherishes.

Are we forever going to have these moments?
Will they one day lose their flavour?
Those moments where the world stands still,
And the clock ticks slowly by…
