I like the comfort of being lost in crowded places,

not because of the anonymity

but because of the humanity;

it reminds me of what it means to be alive,

the expanse of the space swept in the

infinite motion of the present -

to exist, here with you, me and everyone

with hopes and dreams, heartache and pain,

unknown and sheltered from the outside

world, too tender to heal, to breathe, to expel

wonderful and mundane, just moments,

because everything we know and love

are a culmination of moments,

starting now.
