Contractions

Location

I'm constantly moving forward, but it's tearing me apart, 
as if I'm stationary, waiting at a bus station in the dark, 
Where there's no light of day, when my sun has been covered, blinds have been shuttered, and there's no sight of a ray.
 
But yet I stay, waiting for that bus in a shadow of my own mind, 
I know i will make it in a matter of time, although I press rewind and remain at a stop. 
So I stop, and think of ways that I can move on this treadmill of life. 
 
It's like I'm moving, yet I remain stationary
As if the path I'm on is imaginary, 
So i look in the mirror and i ask myself, is this all fiction?
I guess I'm united in a state of many contradictions.
