Epic Simile: So many moments

The leaves dance around me in circles as the falling petals caress my soft shampooed hair. I can see the sun setting in the distance, moving so slowly only a cat can watch, a cat waiting for a mouse in a field so careful not to move or blink, so patient, as a stream flowing through a quiet forest. The rain starts to pitter patter on the cold gray cement next to my feet. I can feel my sweaty palms clench into angry fists. The soft bed of grass is now a muddy stream of wet dirt under my still body. The fresh sent of flowers drifts by me as the rain begins to pour. I raise my hand to wipe the dripping makeup off my cheeks. I turn my head to the side, eyes still closed. I can hear dogs whining for the last meal of their day. I hear parents yelling at a child for a careless mistake. This moment is just one. Just one in a million, one in a day. If they were all to be counted what would a day be. So many moments, so many memories. Just one life.
