“People like us, who believe in physics, know that the distinction between past, present and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion.” – Albert Einstein.

[Outside of] Time Travel

By: Amelia Rose

For Alex

Away from the now

Back to the then

I see you with eyes that start over again

I remember the ways

You made me feel

I remember the love, the fervor, the zeal

You ask me to dance

And whirl me around

And I can’t help but wonder

If my sanity’s sound

You whisper in my ear

We laugh and grin

And just like before

You’ve sucked me right in

We race into the night

For an exciting ride

On the back of your motorcycle

We soar, we glide

I hold on tight and feel your warm strength

And know the long years have been short

At length

We are still the same,

You are you

I am me

Outside of time

We’re young and free
