every one

every one slower and longer than the other
feeling like i'm inhaling a piece of him with every one
while trying to capture every moment
and stretch out every minute
mentally photograph every second
so that i won't forget
this time, this place, these feelings
because i know
all i have to do is blink and it'll be gone
only to become a memory
every one slower and longer than the other
feeling like i'm inhaling a piece of him with every one
taking my time
because i knew he did not belong to me
and was not mine to keep
but with every one
i was able to hold on
and linger
in what would become a future memory...
