Literature Text

It stung like a violent wind that our memories depend
On a faulty camera in our minds

Though shutters closed our lives still exposed
Left to develop on their own

Lenses turn and memories are burned
Into the horizons of our soul

Shutters open, shutters close but they pay no heed to those
That only wonder about their dreams

Slipping through an aperture in time, our lives are cast as a frail line
Of light on a barren sea of film

It is only when through razor focus these rays begin
to form the bigger picture
A failed attempt at literature I scrawled on a sticky note one day in the span of about 10 minutes :O

This is pretty good, but I'd definitely give Deathcab credit for that first line. ;)
