This is just a take on something that happened recently, and it's how time flies when you are spending that time with a perfect friend.
The song had to be Sandy Denny's "Who Knows Where The Time Goes" by Fairport Convention.

How Can An Hour Disappear In A Minute?
That's Always What Happens When I Am With You
Those Grains Of Sand Fly Through The Hourglass So Fast
Drawn By The Fingers Of Chronos Falling Through
π
All Our Time Together Gives Us Memories
These Are Moments That We Will Never Forget
To Be So Far Away, But We're Still So Close
This Is What It Is To Be Two Perfect Friends
π
There Is Always A Spark Of Magic For Us
Seconds Sprinkle Like Glittering Fairy Dust
Those Beautiful Minutes Are Etched On Our Hearts
And Bind Us Together, We Will Never Part
π
How May Words We Share, It's Never Enough
But When We Say Goodbye, It's Always In Love

The Plagiaristic Title Tracks (Don't Look Back)
The Prompt Write an acrostic using the word distraction. Read all about it here This is an attempt to fuse the Vocal Acrostic Challenge with the Title Tracks of albums in my collection. The format is a doctored sonnet as a sonnet has 16 lines and DISTRACTION has only 11 letters so eleven lines, so two quatrains and a tercet.

The Cost
There is always a cost. Not the dramatic kind people imagine, not the cinematic sacrifice that earns applause, but the quiet, relentless toll that transformation demands. The cost begins long before you rise and continues long after you land. It threads itself through every choice, every boundary, every refusal to return to the version of yourself that once made survival look effortless.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe itβs better to go through life a little buzzedβ¦ this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and Iβm going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (βthisβ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
