Why does reality slip away?
I believe there are pocket of time in the universe.
Little pockets where, for just one moment, no one is looking.
For just one second,
the cars drive past,
the camera's turn,
the people walk as the signs blink,
a horn honks ever so slightly in the distance
And people disappear.
No one remembers they ever existed.
The people who knew them feel the slightest loss and confusion.
a little piece of them missing they will never put back together again.
but they don't know what it is.
they don't feel that loss.
they just move on with their lives.
and the forgotten have no one left to remember them,
but the bystanders,
who glimpsed them,
in the last seconds,
before they,
disappeared.
