Time stands still

There is nowhere I want to go
My time is starting to show
Tomorrow today
Nothing much to say
All seems the same
No one really to blame
Feel no burning flame
Leaning against an old tree
So much to see
Time standing still, so it would seem
A living dream
I am the only one here
Yet there is no fear
Not day nor is it night
The light
Somewhere in middle
So I play my fiddle
I am lost but do not want to be found
Just want to sit here on the ground
listening to the soothing sound
The feeling of my heart, as it beats
One lifes little treats
Time never yet started
Love never departed 
Music is in the air
That is all I care
Days turn to night
Who needs a light
Time is on my side
Across the strings the bow does slide
An emotional rollercoaster I ride
Lost to the sound
I am bound
My heartbeat keeping time
I am one with this rhyme
Peace fills the void
Nobody to be annoyed
The moons now in the sky
Time moves on  passing me by
