Benjamin Button
To live in a world
One I do not know
Walking the streets
through a ghost town
The empty shops
and all the faces
with no smile
I become afraid
and run away
I live alone
and no one
tries to reach me
Only I'm aware
of where I am
and what I'm trying
NOT to be
Tick-tock
tick-tock
time's moving
one way
and I'm
running the other
Find me
if you may
and see my escape
right back home
tucked away
