Stuck (like glue)

What’s a moment you wish you could freeze and live in forever?

Easy: Any slow moment with my partner. I could press replay on the little pockets of joy found within this connection forever.

I wrote a poem today on my typewriter stemming from this prompt.

I’ll share it below:

Quiet Down (stay a while) 

Slow mornings tuning into Earth’s frequency. Turning into slow maxing the afternoons away. Enjoying the little things in one another’s company. You have shown me what is truly enough. I now understand which moments hold the most value. It isn’t the loud ones – it’s the quiet ones. Time in your presence feels like an impossible paradox: It slips away. So fast, so fleeting. It completely stops – in pauses not long enough. It engulfs me with gratitude for the simplicity of simply living. I am honoured to walk this haphazard path with you. A deep joy swells in my belly as I finally get to relish the gift it is to be alive. By your side – everything shines. I could linger here forever.
