Seconds
One of the best parts of existing
To be able to look back
And in that mental journey
Find one person you knew
After it all
You can smile to yourself and say
"Ah yes, we were in love once"
---
Every moment is unique
No matter how much of our strength is spent trying to revisit what was lost
It will always be different
The addiction to familiarity continues
As the human experience
Best we can hope for
Is to say thanks for those seconds
And chase on to the next one.
