Moments of Beauty

He finds himself rushing through the same street that a year ago he appreciated for each moment. Now the journey turned into a route, removing the joy and bringing confusion over the moment to moment, the life of the street, and the dominance of the few over others. During the brief moment traversing the concrete jungle he gained the same confidence. He adapted quickly. For sanity and the expected normalcy.

At the back of his mind are these moments of beauty that feel dreamlike. Like a nature of life that comes alive, vacated by the effort to find purpose beyond being validated, above what we've been given and what we must create for ourselves.

There's a beauty that surrounds you.

Every minute,

every hour,

every month of the passing weeks.

You should realize,

there's a beauty you pass,

there's a beauty,

that surrounds you.

Every year,

every decade

every life you come to appreciate.
