A Poem

Well, this isn't music related. I was looking through my old papers on my computer and stumbled upon this poem I wrote just under a year ago. I liked it, and I thought you guys might, too.

I Felt it Briefly


I felt it briefly
When I opened my eyes
As the stars settled below the horizon
And the sun peeked through the trees
I smiled and sighed

You opened your eyes
And looked at me as if for the first time
My mind flooded
Awash in the hurricane of memories
And I felt it briefly

What time is it?
Does it really matter?
Seconds slip by as I drift
Through a sea of thoughts
And I felt it briefly

I didn't say anything
Overcome by a foreign feeling
A feeling I'd lost long ago
And as I gently shut my eyes
I felt it briefly

Reclamation of mind
Resurgence of emotion
Awoken out of their dormant slumber
I couldn't help but laugh
And I felt it briefly
