What is important?

Upside down or different perspective?


A known face,
A known voice,
A known breathlessness,
A known charm,
Struck me mid way.

The part of the day,
I feel important & happy?
Or, the part of the day,
When I am closest to my mind?
What is important?

The smile that turns my cheek warm,
Or, the lump in the throat that wells up unknowingly?
The moments that I am proud of,
Or, the moments that I am most fragile in?
What is important?

The already achieved, dream turned reality,
Or, the Yet of certain somethings?
The so far,
Or the here on?
What is important?

The denying of the need,
Or, the accepting of what is?
The wonder of surprises.
Or, the neglect of routine?
What is important?
