In This Moment

By cre

This moment I play
Night has yet to ruin day
Now you approach me
And in one tiny second I see
How the moment is so small
Yet in its power changes all
In this instant changes last forever
Dreams of childhood smashed and severed
Something in your mind,
Shifted, and you decide
That 3 years old, is old enough
For your needs, for you to fuck
In this moment.

This moment, today
18 years have passed away
Now I approach you
I see you wonder what I'll do
In this moment that seems so small
Yet you know you're about to fall
In this instant changes last forever
I guess you see you weren't so clever
Something in my mind,
Twisted, and I've always known
Your end began with me, and me alone
In this moment.

    the events of an instant can often surpass those of an entire year in importance, it's these times that shape us most, and often these are the ones we wish hadn't shaped us at all ~CFS
