Time to Live Life
February 22, 2016
Tired of living like I’m in a race,
hurrying and picking up the pace.
Need to stop wanting to leave this place,
get my own space in this universe for me.
I wish I had supernatural powers
to slow it down just a couple hours,
enjoy this world and this time that is ours.
Take a moment to breathe and smell
the flowers.
I just want thirty minutes, five minutes or even two minutes
to stop obsessing ‘cause I’m reaching my limit.
We need to take a moment,
to live in the moment,
because we won’t know it has passed until
it's gone.
It’s time.
