At the Brink
Time was late today,
as was my heart.
It skipped a beat,
like a leap year.
A certain haziness,
pervades the horizon.
I paused at my future,
as the past glistened,
still fresh like dew,
quenching the thirst of yesterday.
The moment passes,
into past tense,
as seconds tick away.
I gasp and time collapsed,
the past and present kissed,
and they cried.
Their tears fell,
as crystal vials became me.
