Wish
Just before release
You looked up at the sky
The world turned pitch black
Even with the sun shining down your back
Eyes trembled
And palms sweat
Time stopped
Never to be resumed again
You wish and wish to turn it back
But suddenly dizziness pulls you out
You realize with a broken heart
The world never stops for anyone
So you do the only thing you can
You drop to your knees
And let the dreadful scream out
