words unspoken

As I wait there watching him slowly but surely slip from my fingertips, i think to myself.  Why should I wait to be noticed? Why should I stand on the sidelines waiting for a chance to conncet with what people a relationsip? ... Why wont i speak up? Then... as usaul .. reality hit me. My silence is my sound. As he walks away he looks back at me, with a look as if he wanted to talk to me. I couldnt hear it but his angelic lips said I love you too. Then i realized my unspoken words are being heard.

We never know when we're at our peak. We live in the moment but always think about the past, as if we could fix it. We always push ourselves to the peak of our perspective. Not knowing that we are at our highest point, in this long yet short time spand called life. But when its gone and our bodies slow down and become different than before. We suddenly realize we have past our climax. then  do what humans always do. Dwell ont he past but this time, we try to change ourselves from the present to the past.
