Adelaide
She was a calendar
Of crossed out days
A countdown timer
Ticking on her brain
She'd tell you exactly how many months
Weeks and days left
Until her eyes would set on mine again

I was slowly roasting
A still being
I was in a surreal universe
Of floating things
Where everything sounded like echoes
And shapes blurred my vision
Then Adelaide said hours
And everything went in slow motion

There she stood
The master of my ship
The anchor for the ocean
I keep losing myself in
She had time stopping powers
When her gaze met mine
With just a smile she turned on the sunshine
