We’re moving at the speed of light, br this beaming endless never br Regretting path through life br and love and loss, it flashes past before br We can grasp a single second, electron, br feeling, memory. br Assaulting sensuality, emotions an angry torrent br of what is not allowed br Vindictive pleasures are created in a matter br of minutes, of characters of words br Of truth and pain and hurt and revenge, br oh loving revenge. br Much too much has happened between us, br for there to ever be a way back. br I hope you understand. br We’re moving at the speed of light, br going places far away not returning br not pretending not expecting brilliance, br but opulence earned and success reaped and br piece by paper piece our lives fall into shape br and yours is burnt at the edges. br Signatures, insubstantial as they seem, br carve the stones from quarries from hills br from our countries, our countries where we prosper. br We can live a heartbeat, wingspan, br eyeroll, horsehair, br Missing out on nothing, creating, inviting, br extending curling hands into all we own. br Incredulous eyes gazed up and watered br as your truths, your slimy good-for-nothing br Deeds were detailed, and you lost your last soldier. br Much too much has yet to happen between us, br for there to ever be reason to say. br I hope you understand.
