Save Me On Timeless Poem by Nafisah Suleiman

save me
not in the noise of now,
not in the rush of clocks
that forget our names,

but somewhere quiet, where seconds don't bruise the skin.

save me on timeless, where we don't have to hurry to be understood, where your voice doesn't arrive too late.

let me exist in the pause between your thoughts,
in the soft place where endings don't reach.

if i fade, don't chase me through time, just keep me where we never had to leave.

save me there, in the almost-forever, in timeless.
