Grasping at something great, something meaningful and profound.
A swell of emotions burst through, thoughts of childhood memories, friends, places engraved on the mind.
What meant everything falls away as reality creeps up, time rushing by – threatening, dissolving ambitions.
Lazy childhood days that never ended now race, unrelenting, without mercy.
Once dreams too distant to contemplate threaten to become nightmares if something isn’t done to stem the flow.
But this river finds another path, there is no slowing such a current.
