[ In those moments…. A poem on reflection time ]
In those moments…

In those moments
just as I wake
eyes still shut
glued tight
I'd rather lie
undercover
Me,
my thoughts
and I
Sometimes
fleeting glimpses
of dreams remain
Sometimes I remember
nothing
Only what is on the list
Did I pay the phone bill?
Do I have eggs, milk or bread?
Sometimes I remember
those I miss
hoping still for notification
of a message
that never comes
Or being able to call
and say “hi Mom”
I could mull over something
that went wrong
to try to make peace
and calm my mind
Sometimes I write
with one eye open
because the words
came in the night
I count the minutes
to see if I can
hit snooze
again
and again
Making the moments last
and pass
Before the day takes hold
as I reflect.
