Just for a Moment
All I need is a moment
Oh dear God please, just one
Just one moment of crisp thoughts,
Clear blue skies, freshly painted walls,
No passers by, just silence
All I need is a moment
Just one moment without hearing my child’s cries
Without the screeching of brakes and
Roaring motorcycles nearby
No ringing cell phones, loud voices, or violent outbursts
Of a dangerous guy
No screaming fear inside
Just one moment of peace
Just one moment without life
All I need is a moment
Oh dear God please, just one
Just one moment without irrational arguments and
Pleading desperation and convincing him of why
Why the control leads to destruction
And that will not fly, and why anger, revenge, and
Heartless threats only hurt and drowned beauty,
Build up resentment inside
All I need is a moment
Just one moment of rest
Smelling the flowers, tasting the chocolates
Watching a funny show, just plain rest
Just a moment of quiet, lifeless, rest
Pure relaxation, deep breaths, tranquility, rest
Living without rest, rest with no life
It would almost be worth it to give in, don’t have it in me to fight
