Moving

Moving on

Up

Out

Can't stop

Slow down

Wait

So many broken things

The more you do the more you lose

Hurtling towards the end

The final stop

Maybe we should walk instead

People alight, sit close, perhaps you touch

A single perfect streak of lightning caresses you

Before it dies

People get off

Leave you

Not quite behind,

You're both still moving forward,

But nobody's ever coming back for you

Nobody ever goes back

The buzz of time shakes until things begin to blur

The destination is lost, but you can't quit now

Flowers pass by, streams, bridges, people

But it doesn't matter

Never matters

we rush towards the end

But are desperate to escape it

Realise too late that you can't stop moving

You've reached the end of published parts.
