[bodytext] => A blink of an eye, a second is gone. Closed at the wrong time, they've been shut for too long. Dries out the soul if left open and focused, yet deteriorates that second if it flutters unnoticed. How precious a moment remains, in a constant unchanging change. The uncertainty of another day to sleep keeps us wide awake, betraying the treasures tomorrow keeps. Bloodshot streams attack, closing eyes out of fear; no time to react. Spending each second planing the next, only to find they're open again, lacking only sleep in this moment.
