"At what point do you realize that you're alive?"
Oh wait, I got a text….
"Let's not exist in the same moment together."
He said. Rather gingerly.
Its not a twinge as time passes, it's a resentment. For missed opportunities.
For waiting my turn- but not getting a chance.
Then going, no, SPRINGING,
Only to find,
I've arrived an hour early, and the meeting isn't today, actually, it's tomorrow,
And nobody really cares what you think, or how you say it.
"They don't exist." he confirmed, to himself,
Glancing at the painted arrows on the road, at the glaring stoplight ahead
"I mean~ not what they ARE, but what they stand for."
