Seconds within

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

as things go all their simple ways
nothing is as it's put down
but always waits to seize the day
for once to hold the crown

and while you're not really joking
still it's the only way you find
to maintain some kind of contact
to speak when there's no words

then you feel you're passing through
another barrier built before
and take a position far away
yet all the same 
within

and even if for just some seconds
time struggles hard to stay in flow
is this a card to put your heart on
as you might have nothing left
than just some seconds 
deep within
