Trapped In This Moment In Time

The gunner is tumbling, frozen in free-fall,
sealed in a turret, he can never escape.
He relives their final kiss.
Trapped in this moment in time.

A girlfriend sits silently in shock,
waiting alone by the gates of forever.
In her thoughts, he remains,
trapped in this moment in time.

A pair of green eyes lighten the depths.
A pair of wings shine in the wreckage,
always within touching distance, but.
Trapped in this moment in time.

Their ghostly silhouettes cling to the mist
that drifts across haunted generations.
At least, they, have each other.
Trapped in this moment in time.

Vapourized love letters rain down,
like tears upon cold Portland stone.
Cherished words echo in their hearts.
Trapped, in this moment in time.
