Jun 2010
Of one single fragment of a moment slipped through my fingers
I tried to the press rewind button but
It jammed in on itself and is now
Footage just looping over and over again
A surveillance camera catching a robbery of sorts
A heart robbery
And we're looking for suspects
But the faces are fading into the backgrounds
And magnifying close-up, it is harder to see
Everything pixels across the screen
Like trails from tripping eyes
Just another left-wondering motion
Double-taking, staring hard
I only see what I want to see
Was it you?
I guess I'll never know
I see pieces of everyone everywhere I go.
