Perspective with purpose

Moments to wish for
touches
glances
breaths

feelings to overcome
lies
urges
tests

dare to be present
feeling
living
breathing

to yield thoughts
judgments
bitterness
seething

age lends perspective
obscures
visions
pursuits
of haste

reminds of mortality
grandeur
purpose
nobility
laid waste

time renders all
intentions
shown false

desires
fade quickly
windows
to walls

chances to dream
then live
in this
state

glances back
gazing
why
did I wait

the artist
the dreamer
the boy
the man

the painting
the vision
the frolic
the plan

today
they blend
finally
become one

not so many
days left
to have joy
fun

each moment
to live
so deeply
a father

a teller
a giver
a pillar
a lover

steps to take
fully
whole
complete

the dream
to now
live

appears
at my
feet.
