Outside The Now

Sometimes while I’m in motion

I step outside the now

Reflecting on the universe

And wondering where and how

The stars they go in daytime

The moon it disappears

And why the trees in forests

Play noises in my ears

Why do the restless oceans

Keep beating on the shore

And why do tiny snowflakes

Make patterns on the floor

What makes the smiles on faces

At times just disappear

And leave behind a teardrop

To wash away my fears

Why do a babies giggles

Make me glow inside

And when somebody scares me

Why do I want to hide

Why do I chase each moment

As if it were my last

Reflecting on my future

As it repeats my past

Why do I look to heaven

What do I think I’ll see

Maybe God and all his Angels

Just smiling down on me
