Blossoms blooming,
Ever-looming,
Change around me,
Can we pause for a moment to see?
Freeze time just a second longer?
As the urges grow stronger,
Stop for a moment to ponder,
Just when it all started happening,
My vision flattening
My heart pounding
A ring in my ears sounding
Breathe.
But what if none of it matters?
The dreams I held turned to tatters,
The ashes slip through my fingers,
Leftover hope no longer lingers,
And I’m left asking…
Where did it all go?
Left asking…
Hoping
Praying
Begging
…For time to move slow.
