Faster
She screams
She moans
He cries

Faster
He screams
He bangs
With his fest

Faster
He slaps the chest
She screams
She moans

The old lady
Sitting in the corner
Says with a knowing smile

Patience
My son
Nothing would make
The old car
To run
Faster

He is exhausted
He collapses against the wall
She is exhausted
She collapses on the floor

The old woman
With the knowing smile
Laughs
Faster
The old car doesn’t go
Faster
But why? The days are short
Faster
Do you want to go
Faster
Into old age?

He dries his face
And collects his jacket
From the dirty floor
He drops his youth and go

She is wasted
Memories fade
Faster
Than they formed!
