Second Poem

This one actually has a title: "Waterfall (Athazagoraphobia)"

textures forming letters
letters forming words
words combine and flow
only to be silenced

each second is an eon
some fraction of forever
flowing like a waterfall
past the edge of time

each moment is a shimmer
bringing beauty to the water
the droplets tumble downwards
the flow cannot go back

each shimmer build on others
the flow is filled with structure
as we maneuver through the eddies
we forget the roar below

some leave waves and ripples
flowing upwards through the water
some droplets seem to linger
while the rest are doomed to fade

some seem to struggle endlessly against the flow of time
some seem to forget all of those who went before
some seem to last a minute others just a microsecond
some seem to forget all of those who've been forgotten
