Remote

By waywithwords, Forest Hill, MD

I wish life had a remote.
A forward button for the unbearable times,
A rewind for the most regrettable screw-ups,
And a pause button for the moments
When you wish time would just stand still.

You articulated a lifetime of feelings very well in this short poem. I know them well and smiled knowingly reading your words. But unfortunately, we are slaves of time.
