86,400 Seconds

86, 400 seconds each day, How many of them would you like to stay? Kiss me one silent night And I’ll answer you with my silence Or I will write Replying through a poem, Or a 7 page short thought You said it’s like a review And that may be true. The place where I’ve abandoned myself, A blue pillowcase and a bookshelf A street that I thought that I know, but I didn’t A button and number 7, The elevator and I was close to heaven. Your arms-strong and my fingers shaking, Something inside of me both building and breaking My whispers, The soundtrack to your dreams All is well, Or so it seems.
