For everything to change
And yet I wish it would,
Because then I wouldn't look at you
And feel something missing.
We were alone on a crowded street,
At home in our inner universe,
Where no one else could reach,
And time could not draw us away.
Without you, I am still in that place.
The people rush by,
But I am unchanged,
Because a year isn't long enough
To fill the space within
And I stand alone.
Here I am again,
Exactly as I once was.
There is no moment but this.
