Is the Future Frozen?

Is the future frozen

     like the way we perceive the past?

Never to move 

     until

we reach it

and experience it?

Just another moment

     for us to pass

like a passing sign

on a road.

Our moments of you and I

     seem so far away now

that I barely even remember them.

I question even

     was I ever with you?

Or were they just more moments

     frozen to time?

Pretending to be a part of my life?

     When in reality

it was all just the illusion of movement,

     the facade of emotion...

Letting me believe

that we were really together,

     that we ever had a past

     Or a future at any moment in time.

I ask still,

     did our moments exist before now?

     Before then?

Is the future frozen for the sake of the present?

I wish with all my being

it's all moving.

I want to think

somewhere

we are together and happy.

Even if where I am at this moment

is alone.

I just know

somewhere

in these swirl of seconds,

the ever moving

thought

of you is with me

right this second.
