Missing you is like missing time.
It’s always there but never mine.
Flowing swiftly when your around.
Every moment seems spellbound.
Yet the moments are quickly gone.
As time continues to travel on.
Memories are my one reprieve.
Lasting long after you’ve had to leave.
The current slows when your away.
Making it always that time of day.
When the thoughts won’t leave my mind.
Digging up all the memories I can find.
Eternities have wasted away.
As I am bound in endless replays.
But time always flows.
Reminding me the memories are but mere shadows.
A pale imitation of you.
That I gladly accrue.

Spectating
I can't imagine dying like this, in a place like this; on a cold, dirty pavement with rush hour traffic screaming by and a crowd looking on while paramedics struggle to find space to move. Who could? Deep down we all think there should be a reason, a moment of clarity... or a family presence, at least. For this man, this boy, the rail thin woman lighting a cigarette in a faux fur jacket will have to do - she's been here since the start, her eyes tracking the movement of my shoulders as we fight to keep him on the right side of the line.
