A Better Song This is a fragment. This is only a piece of it. Nothing more than a glimpse of the darkness, a flash of the light, one thunder of the storm, a solitary single second of a million life times, some restless continuation of the dream, one motif amongst a thousand themes, and one tune from a scattered multitude of songs. Maybe this is all there is. A dream, an imagined illusion of peace, a sentimental depiction of desire, a solitary imprint in the snow. And yet; I have seen her, held her, loved her. For just one second.
