The measure of life

Many people hung onto
The small expressions
Surfacing on the face 
Of their beloved
Others on the whispers of the stars
The moon and the sun

Each day they wait to
Hear them speak
With light bright eyes
Looking up to them
Making unknown wishes

Others rely on the soothing rhythms of music
To breathe everyday
The mosquitoes  of hopes and dreams
Lay in the small jars of little things
