How Long is a Lifetime?
How long is a lifetime? Is it years or the weight of a glance? Is it my grandfather’s breath in December Or the silence he left in advance? How long is a goodbye When it echoes for decades in dreams? If I close my eyes at twenty Will I still be twenty in the seams? I measured time by the length of a laugh, Not the tick of a clock, not the math. A single word from her Felt longer than whole summers passed. So how long is a lifetime... When the seconds don’t last? There were Sundays that aged me in minutes, Mondays that vanished in smoke. I’ve sat in rooms where a minute took hours, Where apologies drowned when we spoke. And I wonder if ghosts know the time Or just haunt what they remember. If grief keeps its own calendar, Then I’m stuck in September. I measured time by the length of a laugh, Not the tick of a clock, not the math. A single word from her Felt longer than whole summers passed. So how long is a lifetime... When the seconds don’t last?

Tes mots arrivent comme un murmure qu'on n'oublie pas, DownY... Merci pour ton regard si fin, toujours. La guitare, les mots, tout respire mieux quand quelqu’un comme toi écoute. ❤️

Thanks a lot for feeling both sides — the quiet and the weight. That’s exactly where I hoped it would land. Appreciate you, truly.
