2 Seconds...

2 Seconds is all it took.
2 Seconds to stop,
2 Seconds to look,
2 Seconds to hit the bottom even when you're on the top.

2 Seconds to live,
2 Seconds to die,
2 Seconds the time it takes after feeling from a smile sets in,
2 Seconds also just as long as it lasts before it fades away.

2 Seconds to remember,
2 Seconds to forget,
2 Seconds to forget that you forgot and to think of something completely and udderly useless,
2 Seconds to think of something else that could lead to the most amazing thought ever before the next 2 seconds after which the former happens.

2 Seconds to say thank you for something nice someone has done for you,
2 Seconds the time takes to respond you're welcome,
2 Seconds to part ways and for each moment thereafter become ever more exponentially different,
2 Seconds to reconnect over something as common as a cup of coffee.

2 Seconds ladies and gentlemen, children and pets,
2 Seconds is how we live life, and don`t you forget,
there was a second ago, and then this second right now,
but when this second is gone then the next becomes how,
the 2 seconds that it took are the when, and the now.

2 Seconds all done now,
2 Seconds have past,
I have looked and I've seen for 2 seconds at last,
2 Seconds all the time I devoted to thoughts of thinking I've thunk that my mind's blown,
So much thinking to do, and with such little time, all 2 seconds I've taken on this momentary climb.

2 Seconds...
