What Falls Between

This poem is by my dear friend Chloe. I read it on her blog and it struck me [as her poems often do] and asked her if I could share it on my blog, so here it is :]

In moments it is gone

my racing heart swept up

and disposed of, 

politely 

in the corner

Letting life continue it's unending 

Monotony

I think I brushed with fate

I think I was close

So close, 

But when I open my eyes

All those dreams fall away

and once again I realize

That I have missed my chance
