Stuck In A Moment/Comfortably Numb

Some times

Some things

Some moments

Fleeting glimpses of life

Flashes of things passing you by

Some happenings are such that you want to capture them

Stop time

Stop for a while

And just absorb what’s happening

Soak it in your being

Internalize the life you’re living

The person you are in that moment

The feelings you are feeling

The sounds

The scents

The images

Click Click Click

You wish your eyes could capture snaps every time you blinked

You wish you could write it all

Record it

Preserve it

Store it in some form of permanence

So that you could open that Pandora’s box again at your will

And relive what you were living at that moment

But when you do sit down to write

All you are is a thinker’s block

Unable to comprehend what happened into identifiable forms

Unable to articulate the millions of emotions running through you

Unable to write them down in a coherent way

Unable to think

Unable to speak

You’re Stuck in a moment

You’re comfortably numb…
