Right Now

This is complete
Tugging my hope
Questioning my ideas
Grasping my pleasures

My half has been found
The one who cradles
Like miracles
To my every being

I still have my anger
The chaotic thoughts
Unfair moments
And absolute happiness

Everything I never expected
Now dominates my desires
I'm collecting the moments
I'll forever hold dear

Beautiful with grace
Yet it holds fear
Fear that constricts
Tightly with precision

Sharp as if to pierce
Scraping and lashing at you
Teaching your memory
Never to forget

Leaving you on the ground
Defenselessness like a child
Trapped and lost
But my half holds my ground

Giving me trust and freedom
To become stronger
Without loneliness
Forever loved

Thankful for the agony
Teaching me both sides
Understanding the low
Now living in my high

Tragic, it's fleeting
Nothing is forever
Keeping my attention
For what may come

Right Now, I Live
