One Moment Poem by Nick Downer

One Moment



Nothing,
It's all nothing.
Shallow words
Like torrent waves
Drown me so
I have to struggle
To stay above.
Your glances,
Her words and hands
Eat away at me
Till it feels like I have
Nothing left
But an empty shell.
If I close my eyes
Just for one moment
I am gone.
I escape from myself,
From you,
From everything
And disappear
Into that one moment
