Little Romance

Everyone wants some big, life changing moment.
sometimes, we think we might have it.
we get married, we have children, we graduate from college, we move somewhere new.
but in the end, it all turns out to disappoint us, i think.
we expect this big, life changing moment.
and, after while, it just turns out to be life.
some people search their whole lives for this moment.
they work, they fail, they succeed.
but really, it's all life-changing only in hindsight.
it's hard to learn to appreciate ourselves, in the moment.
we get all dressed up, we put on our pretty shoes, and we wait.
I, for one, am in the mood to dance now.
and try to enjoy whatever i can get.

Ready to throw my shoes away... in the mood for love
