Time runs fast

Faster than we could ever run, even though we try as harder as we can. It flows between our fingers like thin sand in spite of our hopeless efforts to grab it tight.

I watch it go by, minute by minute, as I write and delete word after word. I wanted my fingers to write only words of joy, because another month went through and we remain together in each other’s lives. Because we know each other better than last month. Because we have grown up with one another for still some more time.

And yet, deep inside of me still hangs this tiny piece of sadness – the one that crowls into my heart whenever we are not together. Maybe that is because I always miss something when you are not around… a part of me, maybe ?
