A Minute Changes Life

A Minute Changes Life.

Look forward,
whats missing?
I am.
Not even in your peripherals can you see me,
because I'm gone.
We are no longer as one like we used to be.
You are dancing to the melody of lost,
and i am dancing to the Melody of found.
Trying to figure out whats right,
and whats right seems to be out of sight.
Eyes, dry from not blinking.
Whats that you see?
Nothing, nothing but the silhouette of misery.
Wide eyed, shocked by the loss,
you realize you need me.
All those memories flashing like a collage,
the first kiss, words, breaths.
You took a leap from the highest building
you thought you had flown to the top till you remembered,
the rope around your neck, tightening,
Burning a mark to match your circle of life.
I'm counting down the seconds,
your lungs deflate and cannot refill.
Your trembling, twitching to the 40th second,
by 60 your dead.
Its a one minute rewind to the begging of time,
or is it too late for fairy tales?

    I 'm enthralled by this one, very melancholy driven. I think this is the first poem that you posted, most of the time the first one is something special & in my opinion, I think it is.
