Time Stands Still
My brain fast forwards but my heart remains
With you, who have inspired me every day.
Years of acquaintance won’t go into drains:
Like a good aftertaste that’s here to stay,
An emptied glass is not the story’s end.
I still remember the times we first met:
From just a name on paper, oft mispenned,
To chance encounters never to forget.
Still and all, the tide rises, the tide falls —
We’re shooting stars whose paths crossed only to
Spread out as wandering and blazing balls,
Not knowing what our next pursuits will brew.
But I know this by heart: my fate line will
E’er mark this very night when time stands still.
