Moment by moment

Sometimes you just need to write the first line

And the rest will follow

It's like throwing a pebble into the lake

And see what the ripple will bring

Maybe a floating leaf

Maybe a floating spider

Maybe a past issue which needs to be addressed

It's best to jump in the water

But sometimes standing by the shore is good enough or even better

For putting a distance between my mind and the emotions can help

Anger seen that way is manageable

Jealousy seen that way doesn't sting

Fear seen that way can be funny

And love, oh that mysterious love, can be understood
