Here and Now

Take the time of here and now

to see all that could be

take a chance to live so free

and never bend or bow -

No chance to0 great,

No quest too small -

No other lover

could ease this fall -

My torrid racing winding mind

cannot rest this weary night

for I have taken no resolve

and love is at its height -

I beg for rest of mind and soul

and find some way to keep control -

Yet bending I cannot yet win

though I have been so bold -
