I'm getting so good at
losing whole days now

they slip and slide
out of my life
without anything
to remember them by

if i didn't write something
or take a photo
they'd be gone

unknown
unrealised

today
I breathed
it rained
I ate
I slept
and when I woke up
the light had gone

it can't go on like this

I need someway of
slowing down the moon

i need s-l-o-w m-o-t-i-o-n

so I can see all those things I miss
all the moments
all the subtle changes in her expression

in her eyes...her face...her body
changes I miss at the time

words taking up my brain space
so the information from the eyes is lost

I want those moments
I need them
I need to

slow
down
each
moment
with
her

so
it
lasts
forever
