this time
a slow moving car chase
13 days long now
growing shorter by the moment
the racers are waiting to scream
and yell, and i
will tolerate the narcotic road race
8 days longer
i measure time by car lengths
weary and torn
ready to go home
i measure life by heartbeats
ready to be in your chasing arms
and i will chase your smiles
past bags and labels and trays
i will chase forever
until i catch you
time come slowly
time come quickly
please come any way you can
i am waiting for you
end this chase with me
