Stolen Moments

Today I unraveled a sweater I erased the words of a book I retraced the lines on the map Of the journey I never took I untied the lace of my sneaker I pulled down the zipper of my coat I removed my X from the ballot For I never casted my vote I forgot all the things that I never did And the dreams that weren't a success I deleted all of the repetitive thoughts Of the sentiments I would never express I pushed back the hands of forever To a time that I never yet knew I erased all the time I'd spend trying Forever and a day to find you
