A few moments

For a few moments, I forgot all the pain

Wasn’t your face or your voice, but your words that hit my brain
For a droughted life, you came as rain
Oh how I could live those moments again and again.

Looked for the sunshine, never to be found
I realized it was time to rise without bounds
Lying, after every struggle, when I would look around
Even your voice would excite me, of all the present sounds.

The memories, they are neither long nor too short
But just lovely enough, captured in my heart
Tears here, smiles there, but love since the start
No matter how distant we got, never let us apart.

Yes, without you, days would be harder to cross
But there’s got to be a win, after such a loss
Sometimes, all we can do is hope for the best
Keep faith in our love, and forget the rest.

Even today, when I look at our beautiful pic
I realize there wasn’t anybody else I could pick
For a few moments, I again forget life’s harshness
Not your face or your voice, but our love sweeps the darkness.
