time lapse

i lied there on the couch and wondered what it would be like if i never got up. if i had lied there forever, not just until i died, but long after. if that one section of existence, continued existing, untouched.

and was viewed through a time lapse
so that when the world observed me
and my chest expanded in one last build up
before wasting away
it would look like one
final breath.
