the floating and invisible moment
I try to freeze this moment but it keeps escaping me.
Be here now, be here now / but here is always leaving.
Even when I’m present in it / It is already slipping away
Time marches on while I drag my feet / and try to straddle now and then
Every moment fading into an inky black past / They happened, I swear, all the moments that made me
All the scraped knees and chipped teeth / They happened / somewhere behind me
in the floating and invisible moment.
