just for today

just for today, i will try to hold on to dear friends, fond memories, favorite movies, classic rock, my favorite old sleepshirt, a delicious snack, the sounds of my kids laughing, the warmth of the sun, the way it felt to feel safe in an embrace, the way the wind feels on my face when i am on a motorcycle, the comfort of old friends, the joy of new ones, i will try to remember things that are so dear to my heart, for when i sleep tonight, that is what i want to see. serenity, security, silence, solitude, i want peace, just for today.
