Fraction

Like forgeting there's a destiny to reach
A place where I must arrive
A road that requires my presence
Lights that remind me there's a time that eats me alive


For a fraction of time a smile protects me
Like if the sun would dare just for an instance
to freeze and stare
Making this particular second eternal
And becoming a perfect partner to me


My head and fingers don't notice
the sequence of blues going around this window
I'm making time stop, just for a fraction of time


...and before it ends
...before my power releases
the glory of stillness will keep me warm
and will remind me of the expecting of nothing
