Rewind

by StandStill   Apr 28, 2008


With every beat of her heart
she was afraid it would burst
somehow, she knew about it last
but she felt it first

She's falling upwards
as she's rewinding back in time
screaming at herself
back when she was someone's "mine"

Eagle talon fingers,
she's clutching to hold on
but what happens if her heart bursts
before the break of dawn?

Flip through this old photos
scrapbooks in her mind
simple shards of her heart snapping
as back through time, she rewinds
