Today

Today I sit in the quiet
Today I see into the unseen
Today I feel in the stillness
An unrest, a moving

Today I am the quiet
Today I am the unseen
Though I am not the stillness
I see from the moving

The unrest is coming
Through the quiet
Through the unseen
Forward it is moving

Today it is peace
Today it is calm
But within the tomorrow
Constant is the moving

The moving, the churning
The change and the qualm
But within each slice
Is tension between calm

Calm in each moment
But beyond it not
Silence in the present
Within the moving

The moving be present
The moving be strong
The moving be tangible
But today… it is calm

Tension

Tension between
Past and present
Tension be seen
In what is sent

Time ticking
Beyond today
Time sinking
A story to say

Sadness inside
Trying to be
Sadness abide
All throughout me

Running between
Tomorrow and yesterday
Running unseen
By the things I say

Strength arise
Inside the sound
Strength surmise
Though it pound

Crying alight
Between today
Crying at night
From yesterday

Till it is finished
Final and complete
Like it was wished
At the defeat
