Time takes away hurt But moves slow when you’re in pain… Alarm is beeping

Alarm is beeping, i feel.. is the strongest line here. As if to say, time is now.. wake up, get up, move on... realize that time IS passing and you have to keep up despite the hurt. That's how I'm taking it anyways. Fav'd! Love always, Juli-Michelle

Russell; I agree with you. I know all about time and pain. When I was in pain - I thought that time didn't pass. Thank God it did.... Lucilla
