Slowness

Lining up to take a picture
I can barely remember
That great work of fiction
Simulate the greatest feeling
Echo until
It loses all meaning

Yours a stable static portrait
Always composed
You stare at the camera
Mine will be a long exposure
Trace every movement
See where I've been

Forever
Connecting
At the speed that I forget
Faster than light
So still and precise
This slowness

Difficult to see at first glance
The depth of a distance
The width of a romance
Hopeless as a desperate maybe
The things that you wish for
The love that will save me

Where I find you
A place still worlds apart
Open your eyes
There's no big surprise
Just Slowness
