Thinking
Have you ever looked back.
Thought about the past, future,
and
present?
Saw life fly by without slowing
it
down.
Made mistakes you couldn't
take
back.
Met people you wish never
existed.
Lost people you wish you could
get
back.
Screwed up so bad that letting
go
was better then holding on.
Having that thought always run
through your mind.
Was it the right choice?
Will time just go on from here?
Is all lost forever?
It's like a clock that forgot how
to
turn.
One minute it's moving
And next your dead in your
tracks.
No where to run
No where to hide.
Still all you can think is why.
Why this,
Why that,
Why him,
Why her.
Having life as a door,
People, places and things
They come in and out so fast.
Some hurt,
Others just pass on by.
Without realizing what was had
its
gone in a blink of an eye.
Without the clock that stopped
time
Without the time what moved
to fast
Without the fast pace that
blinded all
Everything that once was
Is nothing anymore.
Everything that kept moving
Is just a blind shade.
Everything that stopped
Is flying by.
With all but a remembrance
From your mind.
