Another World
My world in slow motion walks beside me
Shows me a new life
With all the missing pieces
The faint scratches on the walls
The cobwebbed cracks in pavements
The tiniest insect struggling forward
I notice them all
I hear the rain announcing its entrance
Watch everyone leave
Be its only companion
There’s a new painting out there
My relaxed surroundings breathing slowly
But I’ve left my adrenaline behind
Sprinting to the line
Dancing until night closes its eyes
If I pace myself
Can I drag it back?
Background: MS has definitely slowed me down, but that's given me the chance to see what's around me in a different way
