Bathing
Brushing hair
Teeth
Getting nails done
A facial
Driving a car...All of these
Just are
Human moments
People do every single day
Without a second thoughtYet for someone
Like me
Each moment
Each task
Each completion
Makes me feel
Like I belong
To this worldIt makes me
Feel alive
Lighter
That I haven't
Been forgotten
Left behindThis world
Keeps turning
Time doesn't stop
For anyone
These human moments
Allow me to move
Along with itWhen you open
Your eyes in the morning
Start getting ready for
Work
Your life
Please don't take
Your human moments
For grantedBecause for some
For many
They are everything
Just because
We're ill
Doesn't make us
Weak
Crazy
ForgottenDo not forget
Appreciate
Everything
AlwaysWe aren't
Hermits by choice
But by circumstance
Beyond the fog
The darkness
There is a hollow light
It flickers in the distanceThe light of day
Brings hope
When there is none
Music is our savior
Words are our powerAnd these
Human moments
Are our salvation
