Moment
Time goes by slowly
Unable to comprehend fully
What transpired, what went wrong
Can’t really remember what happened
It’s been so long
Looking up for guidance
These last few weeks have been so mindless
Waiting for a sign, hoping for distraction
Bump into you for the first time
More than a slightly awkward interaction
My friend told me there were more fish
But that’s just more garbage to sift through
Too afraid to admit that I can’t go on
I’m just so lost without you
Time went by slowly
The world froze the moment you told me
The words were cold and came so fast
You’re heading off toward the future
While I’m stuck living in the past
So what went wrong?
Never explained that to me
Maybe it something I said or did
Or maybe there was another guy
That was just a better fit
Trapped in an emotionally vegetative state
My heart’s deteriorating at an exponential rate
Life’s morphed into a nightmare
I’m dying slowly and cannot wake
Take a moment to slow things down
I always feared the day you wouldn’t be around
Being careful, taking every precaution
But now I realize
Nothing could have stopped it
Every now and then I want to call you back
Or disregard the places in life where we are at
Not fully healed, but no want to beguile the time
Those sour grapes I had
Have now turned to wine
Maybe we tried to move things along
Like we were sprinting to the finish line
But I don’t look back anymore
It just isn’t worth the time
