Slowed

Time has slowed
Not because it’s meant to 
But because 
You think a million things a second

Time has slowed
Not because it wants to 
But because
Pain is fast but last a lifetime

Time has slowed
Not because you’re focused
But because
Everything is happening at once

Time has slowed
Not because it's tranquil
But because
Your senses have drowned

Time has slowed
Because this is it
Time has slowed 
Because time is up.
